### Examples

The following XAML example shows how to bind radio buttons to the [NumberedListFormat](https://docs.textcontrol.com/tx-text-control-dotnet-wpf/reference/txtextcontrol/inputformat/numberedlistformat-property/llms-full.txt) property using the [WPF.BooleanConverter](https://docs.textcontrol.com/tx-text-control-dotnet-wpf/reference/txtextcontrol-wpf/booleanconverter/llms-full.txt) class and the NumberFormats property.

```plaintext
…
xmlns:tx="clr-namespace:TXTextControl.WPF;assembly=TXTextControl.WPF"
…
<Window.Resources>
    <tx:BooleanConverter x:Key="boolConv" />
</Window.Resources>
…
<RadioButton
    Content="{Binding ElementName=textControl1, Path=InputFormat.NumberFormats[0], Mode=OneTime}"
    GroupName="numberFormat"
    IsChecked="{Binding
        ElementName=textControl1,
        Path=InputFormat.NumberedListFormat,
        Converter={StaticResource boolConv},
        ConverterParameter=ArabicNumbers}" />
<RadioButton
    Content="{Binding ElementName=textControl1, Path=InputFormat.NumberFormats[1], Mode=OneTime}"
    GroupName="numberFormat"
    IsChecked="{Binding
        ElementName=textControl1,
        Path=InputFormat.NumberedListFormat,
        Converter={StaticResource boolConv},
        ConverterParameter=Letters}" />
…
```

The following example changes the formatting applied to text entered at the end of a document by using `InputFormat.NumberFormats`.

```csharp
textControl.Text = "Project summary";
textControl.InputPosition = new InputPosition(textControl.Text.Length);
InputFormat inputFormat = textControl.InputFormat;

foreach (NumberFormat numberFormat in inputFormat.NumberFormats)
{
    Console.WriteLine(numberFormat);
}
```

```vbnet
textControl.Text = "Project summary"
textControl.InputPosition = New InputPosition(textControl.Text.Length)
Dim inputFormat As InputFormat = textControl.InputFormat

For Each numberFormat As NumberFormat In inputFormat.NumberFormats
    Console.WriteLine(numberFormat)
Next
```
