Description cazlp 2024-03-02 07:23:50 UTC
Description:
1. Create bullet list.
2. 'tab' beginning of line text. then type some random text
3. shift+enter
4. [tab again if you want, more tabs to be better seen now; then type more some random text on these other lines]
5. enter

All the tabs will be gone and spaces of the paragraph vanishes visually. The code for tab still remain there.


If you select 'numeric with all sublevels' style of bullet list, and click on the last character, then start typing, it will start typing on the following line instead of the line where you clicked.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Either 'numeric with all sublevels' or just a bullet list breaks paragraph if first character is a tab.
2. Enter (new paragraph) breaks visually if combined with newlines (shift+enter).
3. It can be reproduced on new files. Previous versions had it too.

Actual Results:
All the characters moved back without the tab visual, almost as if they changed to space.

Expected Results:
That nothing of this would happen, and stick to the same style that were static before the a) enter, or, b) clicking on last character and then typing (to be transported to the following line)


Reproducible: Always

The "NEEDINFO" is unfair, since the description of this report is even excessive on how the process could be reproduced.

This problem affects my files that have bullet lists 'numeric with all sublevels', I have to click somewhere to start typing, and if it's the end of line, it start typing on the next.
Perhaps trying this on old files with very long bullet lists (on my case 500, some shift+enter newlines created spaces between the numbers seldomly), saving and clicking on last character. 

Having LO to 'save' the bullet listed long file, altering anything, and then clicking on next character, and playing with newlines, could make it better seemed.
