    • com.aspose.words.SdtListItem
  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.lang.Cloneable
    public class SdtListItem 
    extends java.lang.Object

This element specifies a single list item within a parent SdtType.COMBO_BOX or SdtType.DROP_DOWN_LIST structured document tag.

Example:

Shows how to work with StructuredDocumentTag nodes of the DropDownList type.
// Create a blank document and insert a StructuredDocumentTag that will contain a drop down list
Document doc = new Document();
StructuredDocumentTag tag = new StructuredDocumentTag(doc, SdtType.DROP_DOWN_LIST, MarkupLevel.BLOCK);
doc.getFirstSection().getBody().appendChild(tag);

// A drop down list needs elements, each of which will be a SdtListItem
SdtListItemCollection listItems = tag.getListItems();
listItems.add(new SdtListItem("Value 1"));

// Each SdtListItem has text that will be displayed when the drop down list is opened, and also a value
// When we initialize with one string, we are providing just the value
// Accordingly, value is passed as DisplayText and will consequently be displayed on the screen
Assert.assertEquals(listItems.get(0).getValue(), listItems.get(0).getDisplayText());

// Add 3 more SdtListItems with non-empty strings passed to DisplayText
listItems.add(new SdtListItem("Item 2", "Value 2"));
listItems.add(new SdtListItem("Item 3", "Value 3"));
listItems.add(new SdtListItem("Item 4", "Value 4"));

// We can obtain a count of the SdtListItems and also set the drop down list's SelectedValue attribute to
// automatically have one of them pre-selected when we open the document in Microsoft Word
Assert.assertEquals(listItems.getCount(), 4);
listItems.setSelectedValue(listItems.get(3));

Assert.assertEquals(listItems.getSelectedValue().getValue(), "Value 4");

// We can enumerate over the collection and print each element
Iterator<SdtListItem> enumerator = listItems.iterator();
while (enumerator.hasNext()) {
    SdtListItem sdtListItem = enumerator.next();
    System.out.println(MessageFormat.format("List item: {0}, value: {1}", sdtListItem.getDisplayText(), sdtListItem.getValue()));
}

// We can also remove elements one at a time
listItems.removeAt(3);
Assert.assertEquals(listItems.getCount(), 3);

// Make sure to update the SelectedValue's index if it ever ends up out of bounds before saving the document
listItems.setSelectedValue(listItems.get(1));

doc.save(getArtifactsDir() + "StructuredDocumentTag.ListItemCollection.docx");

// We can clear the whole collection at once too
listItems.clear();
Assert.assertEquals(listItems.getCount(), 0);
