Hi @Joel, there is an option to 'Restart at this paragraph' that it's no enable on the paragraph below "Test1", but it's enable on the paragraph below "Test2".
That option is also available on the context menu.

Copying from the first group of numbered paragraphs happens what you comment but not copying from the second group under 'Test2'

Resolved as not a bug, please if you are not agree reopen it.

I'm not sure how that explains the inconsistent behavior where two lines show up as one style and the third line shows up as a different style. I'm going to test MSO to see what behavior it has

Microsoft Office pastes as expected. The numbers are 4-6 on the paste and all are identical style to the previous styles for the numbered lists (i.e., matches the copy entirely)

Sorry @Joel my mistake reading you comment.

I think the issue is that' needed to copy the end of paragraph to avoid that the last paragraph mix with the paragraph where it's pasted.

Copying with the end of paragraph included works as expected.

So there are two issues i see here

1. should pasting number lists reset the number back to one. This is a UX decision to make and i would be for resetting it to one.

2. direct formatting applied to the paragraph that is being pasted to is being applied to the last entry of the list. This is a bug to me and appears if you dont copy the crlf (aka \r\n) at the end of the numbered item 3.

I can't see change a paragraph format without ask the user, introducing a direct format.
And I'm not sure this specific case is the usual, maybe more usual paste to have new paragraphs included in a list.

What paragraph style must be when pasting part of a paragraph in another?, I think only direct format is carried with the pasted text and for the pasted text.

Perhaps the issue is more about select easily with the crlf included to copy. Now you need to go with mouse to the beginning of the next line.

this is not a ' style' test, but a direct formatting test ;)

I copied 1-3 and pasted below test3 .. formatting remains the same. Will attach screen print.
I selected Test1-Test2  and hit Ctrl+M  and see the real styles.

If a user copied list entries 1, 2 and 3, it wouldnt make sense that it pasted 4, 5, and 6 unless it was being pasted below entry 3. Also when it pastes 4, 5, and 6, it isnt even linked to the entries that are copied, so that if you added a 4th entry under Test1, it would increment the pasted ones. You can see that pasting as unformatted text does it the right way.

If i paste unformatted text, it should use the style already set at the pasted position, but when i paste with formatting, html format or rtf, it should be exactly like what i've copied.

You can see if i paste with html format and havent copied the crlf, the 3rd entry is fine, but it messes up the first entry, so not copying the crlf isnt the issue. If i paste with rtf and havent copied the crlf, it messes up the first and third entries.

Shows the behaviour of pasting formatted text, html, and rtf with and without the crlf.

Test 7.0+. 4-6 are all Text Body.
