Description Alex 2019-11-10 11:38:56 UTC
Description:
Clicking on the Increase Indent or Decrease Indent icons doesn't always have the same effect: depending on the context it changes the indent of the whole paragraph or the indent of the first line of the paragraph.

Yet, there is no obvious way to know in advance which one will be performed and there is apparently no way to chose which one to control.

See the attached document for a specific case. 

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the attached document
2. Use the Increase Indent or Decrease Indent function on one or the other of the bulleted items

Actual Results:
The first bulleted item gets shifted as a whole whereas the second bulleted item gets its first line shifted.

Expected Results:
Either the same result should be obtained, or their should be different icons to be able to control each function independently, or their should be a way to know and control which action is going to be performed. 


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

Dear Alex,

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.
 
If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.

Please DO NOT

Update the version field
Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not 
appropriate in this case)


If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so:
1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

2. Test your bug
3. Leave a comment with your results.
4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo';
4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword

Warm Regards,
QA Team
