    • “continues”
    • “restarts”
  • inheritnum (enumeration)
    • “ignore”
    • “inherit”
  • numeration (enumeration)
    • “arabic”

    • “loweralpha”
    • “upperroman”
    • “lowerroman”
  • spacing (enumeration)

Description

In an OrderedList, each member of the list is marked with a numeral, letter, or other sequential symbol (such as roman numerals).

Processing expectations

Formatted as a displayed block.

If no value is specified for Numeration, Arabic numerals (1, 2, 3, …) are to be used.

In nested lists, DocBook does not specify the sequence of numerations.

Note that the attributes of OrderedList have a significant influence on the processing expectations.
