Shows how to number paragraphs with LISTNUM fields.

# LISTNUM fields display a number that increments at each LISTNUM field.
# These fields also have a variety of options that allow us to use them to emulate numbered lists.

# Lists start counting at 1 by default, but we can set this number to a different value, such as 0.
# This field will display "0)".

# LISTNUM fields maintain separate counts for each list level.
# Inserting a LISTNUM field in the same paragraph as another LISTNUM field
# increases the list level instead of the count.
# The next field will continue the count we started above and display a value of "1" at list level 1.
builder.insert_field(aw.fields.FieldType.FIELD_LIST_NUM, True)
# This field will start a count at list level 2. It will display a value of "1".
builder.insert_field(aw.fields.FieldType.FIELD_LIST_NUM, True)
# This field will start a count at list level 3. It will display a value of "1".
# Different list levels have different formatting,
# so these fields combined will display a value of "1)a)i)".
builder.insert_field(aw.fields.FieldType.FIELD_LIST_NUM, True)
builder.writeln('Paragraph 2')
# The next LISTNUM field that we insert will continue the count at the list level
# that the previous LISTNUM field was on.
# We can use the "list_level" property to jump to a different list level.
# If this LISTNUM field stayed on list level 3, it would display "ii)",
# but, since we have moved it to list level 2, it carries on the count at that level and displays "b)".

# We can set the list_name property to get the field to emulate a different AUTONUM field type.
# "NumberDefault" emulates AUTONUM, "OutlineDefault" emulates AUTONUMOUT,
# and "LegalDefault" emulates AUTONUMLGL fields.
# The "OutlineDefault" list name with 1 as the starting number will result in displaying "I.".
