17.9.21 numPicBullet (Picture Numbering Symbol Definition)

This element specifies the appearance and behavior of a specific picture to be used as the numbering symbol within a numbering level definition in a document, and is the basis for all picture numbering symbol information in a WordprocessingML document.

This element is not used directly within abstract numbering definitions but rather is referenced through its numPicBulletId attribute by the lvlPicBulletId element (§17.9.10) used within numbering level definitions.

[Example: Consider the WordprocessingML fragment below which illustrates how a numPicBullet definition is referenced by a picture numbering symbol definition reference through its numPicBulletId attribute:

<w:numPicBullet w:numPicBulletId="1">
  <w:drawing>
    …
  </w:drawing>
</w:numPicBullet> 
…
<w:abstractNum w:abstractNumId="7">
  <w:nsid w:val="71A06359" />
  <w:multiLevelType w:val="hybridMultilevel" />
  <w:tmpl w:val="10643FE6" />
  <w:lvl w:ilvl="0" w:tplc="B7663E56">
    <w:start w:val="1" />
    <w:numFmt w:val="bullet" />
    <w:lvlText w:val="" />
    <w:lvlPicBulletId w:val="1" />
  </w:lvl>
</w:abstractNum>

The lvlPicBulletId element references a numPicBullet element, which defines the size and appearance of all picture bullets of this picture bullet type within the document. It is important to note that this picture bullet can be referenced by multiple levels of various numbering definitions. end example]

Attributes

Description

numPicBulletId (Picture Numbering Symbol ID)

Specifies a unique ID for this picture bullet definition which shall be used to reference this picture bullet from a numbering level definition.

[Example: Consider the WordprocessingML fragment below which illustrates how a numPicBullet definition is referenced by a picture numbering symbol definition reference through its numPicBulletId attribute:

<w:numPicBullet w:numPicBulletId="1">
  …
</w:numPicBullet> 
…
<w:abstractNum w:abstractNumId="7">
  <w:lvl w:ilvl="0" w:tplc="B7663E56">
    …
    <w:lvlPicBulletId w:val="1" />
  </w:lvl>
</w:abstractNum>

The lvlPicBulletId element references the ID in the numPicBulletId attribute directly. end example]

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_DecimalNumber simple type (§17.18.10).

[Note: The W3C XML Schema definition of this element’s content model (CT_NumPicBullet) is located in §A.1. end note]
