Regina: Ist this possible in ODF to have 2 levels of a list in one line? LibreOffice can't/shouldn't implement a feature that isn't possible in default file format. Created attachment 140593 [details]
Workaround with layout table
No, it is not possible.
Workaround: Use a table with 2 columns. In the first, very small column set paragraph to list level 1 and in the second column write all paragraphs, which belong under this list item and set them to list level 2. Next row again, the first level in first column and all sub-items in second column. Drawback: Rearrangement of list items is more laborious.
Kees, thanks for your idea but if it's not (yet) in scope of ODF then LibreOffice can't implement that in an interoperable way. Closing as WONTFIX. If this is incorrect or if ODF will allow this in a forseeable future, please adjust the status of this bug. Thanks, Regina, for the workaround. Maybe others are available too. Not the answer I was hoping for, but thanks for the fast response and workaround. Would it make sense to file a feature request for ODF-next? Also, where does one file this? https://issues.oasis-open.org looks like a closed community as I can register myself.

Description: A numbered list can be created like this: 1. a. hi b. there However, I want to format it like this: 1. a. hi b. there List numbering of 1. and a. should be on the same line because there's no content for article 1., only for sub a. Legal texts should usually look like this. It seems this currently can't be achieved in LO writer (tried with 6.0.2).
