Can BulletCheckmark be used in second level bullet list?

GemBox.Document

Dear GemBox team,

is it possible to change the style of the second level in a bullet list?
I was only able to use e.g. a BulletCheckmark on the first level.
The second level always uses a white circle:

TwoLevels

I would like to use different styles in the second level depending on the meaning of each item, e.g. a completed task should get a checkmark, an open task a white circle, and other items a black circle.

Best, Thomas

Hi,

Try using this:

bulletList.ListLevelFormats[1].NumberFormat = "\uF0B7";
bulletList.ListLevelFormats[1].CharacterFormat.FontName = "Symbol";

checkmarkList.ListLevelFormats[1].NumberFormat = "\uF0B7";
checkmarkList.ListLevelFormats[1].CharacterFormat.FontName = "Symbol";

Does this solve your issue?

Regards,
Mario

Thanks, Mario, now the white circle is black, but the checkmark is not shown:

TwoLevels-2

            ListStyle bulletList = new ListStyle(ListTemplateType.Bullet);
            bulletList.ListLevelFormats[0].ParagraphFormat.NoSpaceBetweenParagraphsOfSameStyle = true;
            bulletList.ListLevelFormats[1].ParagraphFormat.NoSpaceBetweenParagraphsOfSameStyle = true;
            bulletList.ListLevelFormats[1].NumberFormat = "\uF0B7";
            bulletList.ListLevelFormats[1].CharacterFormat.FontName = "Symbol";

            ListStyle checkmarkList = new ListStyle(ListTemplateType.BulletCheckmark);
            checkmarkList.ListLevelFormats[0].ParagraphFormat.NoSpaceBetweenParagraphsOfSameStyle = true;
            checkmarkList.ListLevelFormats[1].ParagraphFormat.NoSpaceBetweenParagraphsOfSameStyle = true;
            checkmarkList.ListLevelFormats[1].NumberFormat = "\uF0B7";
            checkmarkList.ListLevelFormats[1].CharacterFormat.FontName = "Symbol";

I see now, try this:

checkmarkList.ListLevelFormats[1].NumberFormat = "\uF0FC";
checkmarkList.ListLevelFormats[1].CharacterFormat.FontName = "Wingdings";
