Ordered List Style

erykwaldererykwalder10k downloads

Set ordered list style inline. Alphabetic lists, Roman numeral lists, etc.

  • Overview
  • Scorecard
  • Updates1

This is a plugin for Obsidian.

Set the style of ordered lists inline by adding details in the first list item.

1. {A} a list with an upper-roman list ordering
2. This item will show as "B"
3. and this one as "C"

To set the style, the style name needs to be put in brackets before any other text.

Any of the list style types can be used with their full name, like upper-alpha. Additionally there is shorthand available for some of the common types:

  • {A}: Upper alpha
  • {a}: Lower alpha
  • {I}: Upper roman
  • {i}: lower roman
  • {01}: decimal with leading zero
  • {1}: decimal (default, though this may not be the case in your theme)

The list style cannot be changed mid-list, or by setting it in any element but the first.

Gotchas

On mobile, sub lists may take on their parent type by default. This can be corrected by manually setting it back to the default, or whichever style type you prefer.

About
Set ordered list numbering style inline by placing a style token in the first list item (e.g., {A}, {i}, {01}). Use full style names or shorthands for common types; note the style applies to the entire list and cannot be changed mid-list.
