That's what "positionIncrementGap" is all about. It's the offset between the last token of one element of your list and the first token of the next. Let's say your doc looks like: <doc> <field name="text">some text</field> <field name="text">other stuff</field> </doc>
I'm presuming that's what you mean by "list". Now the positions of these tokens are some: 0 text: 1 other: 101 stuff: 102 assuming your positionIncrementGap is 100. How you search for _phrases_ with a slop < 100 to prevent matches across. So "some text"~90 would match, but "text other"~90 would not.
