# ListLevel Object (IListLevel Interface)

This object provides access to the parameters of one level of a list. It is an element of the [List](/fine-reader/engine/api-reference/text-related-objects/list) collection. It provides access to the formatting and numbering attributes of the list level, but not to recognized text of the level.

## Properties

The text may include elements <em>%0</em>, <em>%1</em>, ..., <em>%n</em>, where <em>n</em> is the index of the current level. When viewing the document, these elements will be replaced with actual values. "%%" is used for the normal character "%". The other elements are displayed as is.</p><p>For example, "Section %0.%1" means that the numbering of the second list level uses the current numbering of the first list level.</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><a name="levelindex" /><strong>LevelIndex</strong></p></td><td><p><strong><a href="/fine-reader/engine/guided-tour/advanced-techniques/programming-aspects/working-with-properties">int</a></strong>, read-only</p></td><td><p>Stores the index of the level.

The property only makes sense, if the value of the <strong>NumberingStyle </strong>property is NS\_Bullet. The value of this property always contains no more than one symbol.</p><p>By default, the bullet symbol is ● (U+2022).</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><a name="startnumber" /><strong>StartNumber</strong></p></td><td><p><strong><a href="/fine-reader/engine/guided-tour/advanced-techniques/programming-aspects/working-with-properties">int</a></strong></p></td><td><p>Specifies the start number of the list level.
