Examples

The following example applies paragraph layout to selected report text by using ParagraphFormat.StructureLevel.

textControl.Text = "First item\nSecond item\nThird item";
textControl.Select(0, textControl.Text.Length);
ParagraphFormat paragraphFormat = textControl.Selection.ParagraphFormat;

paragraphFormat.StructureLevel = 10;
Console.WriteLine($"Structure Level used by Paragraph Format: {paragraphFormat.StructureLevel}");

textControl.Selection.ParagraphFormat = paragraphFormat;

textControl.Text = "First item" & vbCrLf & "Second item" & vbCrLf & "Third item"
textControl.Select(0, textControl.Text.Length)
Dim paragraphFormat As ParagraphFormat = textControl.Selection.ParagraphFormat

paragraphFormat.StructureLevel = 10
Console.WriteLine($"Structure Level used by Paragraph Format: {paragraphFormat.StructureLevel}")

textControl.Selection.ParagraphFormat = paragraphFormat

Remarks

The property's default value is 0.

The property returns its default value when the text selection contains multiple paragraphs with mixed structure levels. The Selection.IsCommonValueSelected method can be used to check for mixed attributes.
