Description ro 2019-05-12 22:41:55 UTC
Description:
In LibreOffice v6.2.3.2 Writer, if I create a custom paragraph style with a custom list style attached, I have the following problem. If the paragraph style has an area color set, then the different levels of the list shift the area color left edge to the right. Is this a bug?

Steps to Reproduce:
1. In the Styles & Formatting sidebar, create a custom list style.
    a) Under "Bullets" tab, select "Solid small circular bullets".
2. In the Styles & Formatting sidebar, create a custom paragraph style.
    a) Under "Area" tab, select "Color".
    b) Under "Outline & Numbering" tab > "Numbering style:", select your
       custom list style created above.
3. Now back in the document, under "Styles & Formatting" sidebar,
   double-click the custom paragraph style to insert the paragraph into the
   document.
4. Now when typing in the custom paragraph, if you press tab to go to level
   two of the list, the paragraph area color moves to the right.

Actual Results:
The paragraph area color moves to the right for different levels of the list.

Expected Results:
The paragraph area color should not shift to the right for different levels of the list.


Reproducible: Always

I confirm the described behaviour.

More simple steps to reproduce

1. Open document
2. Change paragraph style: Area => Color
3. Apply list to that paragraph

I don't think, that this is a bug, but let's ask design team

When you create a style with indentation, like the quotation, it also applies the fill color only for the actual paragraph. Lists add margins so I'd say it's the expected behavior.

Related issues are bug 94562, bug 83532, and bug 114287 ("paragraph style overrule list style settings" contradicts my upper statement).

Regina, Michael: What do you think?
Comment 4 Heiko Tietze 2019-05-27 11:19:08 UTC
Double checked the behavior with MS Word. Behavior is the same and round trip works. => WFM
Comment 5 Heiko Tietze 2019-06-06 12:20:19 UTC
No further opinion so resolving as WFM. The behavior is in accordance with competitors and round-trip works.

One workaround that might do what OP wants is to create a section, and set the section background colour.
