All Implemented Interfaces:
Element, TextElementArray
Direct Known Subclasses:

@Deprecated public class List extends Object implements TextElementArray
Deprecated.
A List contains several ListItems.

Example 1: 

 List list = new List(true, 20);
 list.add(new ListItem("First line"));
 list.add(new ListItem("The second line is longer to see what happens once the end of the line is reached.
 Will it start on a new line?"));
 list.add(new ListItem("Third line"));

The result of this code looks like this:

  1. First line
  2. The second line is longer to see what happens once the end of the line is reached. Will it start on a new line?
  3. Third line
Example 2: 
 List overview = new List(false, 10);
 overview.add(new ListItem("This is an item"));
 overview.add("This is another item");

The result of this code looks like this:

  • This is an item
  • This is another item
