17.9.2 abstractNumId

This element specifies the abstract numbering definition information whose properties shall be inherited by the parent numbering definition instance.

[Example: Consider the WordprocessingML for a document with two numbering definition instances, each referencing a different abstract numbering definition:

<w:numbering>
  <w:abstractNum w:abstractNumId="0">
    …
  </w:abstractNum>
  <w:abstractNum w:abstractNumId="1">
    …
  </w:abstractNum>
  …
  <w:num w:numId="1">
    <w:abstractNumId w:val="0" />
  </w:num>
  <w:num w:numId="2">
    <w:abstractNumId w:val="1" />
  </w:num>
  …
</w:numbering>

The two numbering definition instances reference the abstract numbering definitions with abstractNumId attribute values of 0 and 1 respectively, via their abstractNumId elements. end example]

Attributes

val (Decimal Number Value)

Specifies that the contents of this attribute contains a decimal number.

The contents of this decimal number are interpreted based on the context of the parent XML element.

[Example: Consider the following numeric WordprocessingML property of simple type ST_DecimalNumber:

  <… w:val="1512645511" />

The value of the val attribute is a decimal number whose value must be interpreted in the context of the parent element. end example]

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_DecimalNumber simple type (17.18.10).

[Note: The W3C XML Schema definition of this element’s content model (CT_DecimalNumber) is located in A.1. end note]
