Image of reported bug

Behavior: When creating a numbered list using the "Uppercase Roman Number" style, the 7th and 8th item in the list (and intermittently after that) will be indented as though pressing the TAB key. This behavior is not observable in any other numbered list style

Expected behavior: The numbered list will have a uniform appearance

Architecture: Repeatable on multiple forms of Linux x86_64 architecture, 2 Linux operating systems

Also repeatable on Libreoffice 7.1.2

- Select you numbered list
- Format -> Bullets and Numbering -> Tab: Position
- Tab stop at: Increase the default value to 0.60" or some larger value

From my perspective not a bug.

So the text should not look uniform? I would think that numbered lists should look alike all the way throughout the document

Your picture shows that the dot after VII is aligned with the I of previous Item, so the Item following VII. can't be aligned.
On the contrary, if the tab is big enough all the items on your screenshot will be aligned vertically.

Not a bug for me.
Best regards. JBF

I cannot reproduce the problem in Version: 7.4.0.0.alpha0+ (x64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 4ac9032163cf55c160145373e7c41741c9c339ca
CPU threads: 8; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19043; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win
Locale: de-DE (en_US); UI: en-US
Calc: CL
In that version the default space is large enough for "VIII."

Please try with a newer Version of LibreOffice. You should update anyway because of a security fix.
