(r3) RenderListPlugin < TWiki

---+ Render List Plugin 

Render bullet lists in a variety of formats

---++ Syntax Rules

   * Place a =%<nop>RENDERLIST{ &lt;parameters&gt; }%= before any bullet list
      * The lists can be handcrafted, generated by another Plugin, a =%<nop>TOC%=, or the result of a %TWIKIWEB%.FormattedSearch
   * Supported parameters:
      | ="name"= or%BR% =theme="name"= | Select a rendering theme |
      | =focus="any&nbsp;text"= | Focus list on a bullet with specified text |
      | =depth="2"= | Remove bullets with an indent greater then the depth. The depth is relative to the highlighted bullet in case =focus= is specified |
   * Rendering themes can be defined by =&lt;name&gt;_THEME= Plugin settings
      * Each theme is defined by a comma separated list containing the render type and parameters required by that render type
      * There are different render types; this initial Plugin version has *tree* and *icon* render types
   * Format of the *tree* render type:
      * =Set &lt;name&gt;_THEME = tree, &lt;0/1 flag to suppress/show lines of first level&gt;=
   * Format of the *icon* render type:
      * =Set &lt;name&gt;_THEME = icon, &lt;0/1 flag to suppress/show lines of first level&gt;, &lt;icon width&gt;, &lt;icon height&gt;, &lt;spacer graph&gt;, &lt;T-line graph&gt;, &lt;I-line graph&gt;, &lt;L-line graph&gt;, &lt;icon image&gt;=
      * To define new Icon themes, attach images to this Plugin topic and set the parameters accordingly
   * Focus bullet list:
      * Search bullet list for text. If a bullet is found:
         1. Highlight text and remove =[<nop>[][]]= links on bullet where text is found
         2. Reduce bullet list to show only its parents and children
      * This is useful to maintain one large bullet list with links to team pages, representing the organization of a company. Each team page can INCLUDE the bullet list with focus set to itself.
