Description: When we have a document with numbered list and 'Show changes' mode was enabled in LibreOffice Writer, after editing text as shown in an attached screenshort we are getting wrong updated numbering. Guessing that it happens when partially deleted text in Item [3] (old number) considered to be as deletion of both Items [2] and [3] causing wrong new numbering. As selected current version is: 7.6.7.2. During analysis of the issue we've foud that the number list behaviour was updated since version 7.4: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleaseNotes/7.4#New_numbering_in_Show_Changes_mode Steps to Reproduce: Preconditions: 1. document (.DOCX) with numbered list 2. Enabled 'Show changes' mode 1. Delete 1 of numbered item 2. Delete some text inside next numbered item Actual Results: New numbering after document modification is wrong. Item where some of text was deleted (Step 2 in Steps to Reproduce) doesn't get a number but became part of Item preceding Item removed in Step 1. Expected Results: Item where some of text was deleted (Step 2 in Steps to Reproduce) should get a number OLD-1. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: Version: 7.6.7.2 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: dd47e4b30cb7dab30588d6c79c651f218165e3c5 CPU threads: 8; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19045; UI render: Skia/Vulkan; VCL: win Locale: en-US (en_US); UI: en-US Calc: CL threaded

Created attachment 199742 [details] Explanation of the numbering issue I guess such numbering behavior is due to partial deletion of text in Item [3] (old number) considered to be as deletion of both Items [2] and [3] causing wrong new numbering.
There is no time frame, to fix the issues. This project is mainly developed by volunteers, like myself, so it depends on the attention to be fixed. I think the best you can do is put your question in https://ask.libreoffice.org/c/english/5, there are expert people about writer, who can help to verify if it is really a bug, or something else is happening. Or maybe is some of the following reported bugs. https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/buglist.cgi?bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED&bug_status=NEEDINFO&field0-0-0=product&field0-0-1=component&field0-0-2=alias&field0-0-3=short_desc&field0-0-4=status_whiteboard&field1-0-0=product&field1-0-1=component&field1-0-2=alias&field1-0-3=short_desc&field1-0-4=status_whiteboard&field2-0-0=product&field2-0-1=component&field2-0-2=alias&field2-0-3=short_desc&field2-0-4=status_whiteboard&list_id=1851663&order=bug_id%20DESC&query_format=advanced&type0-0-0=substring&type0-0-1=substring&type0-0-2=substring&type0-0-3=substring&type0-0-4=substring&type1-0-0=substring&type1-0-1=substring&type1-0-2=substring&type1-0-3=substring&type1-0-4=substring&type2-0-0=substring&type2-0-1=substring&type2-0-2=substring&type2-0-3=substring&type2-0-4=substring&value0-0-0=number&value0-0-1=number&value0-0-2=number&value0-0-3=number&value0-0-4=number&value1-0-0=list&value1-0-1=list&value1-0-2=list&value1-0-3=list&value1-0-4=list&value2-0-0=track&value2-0-1=track&value2-0-2=track&value2-0-3=track&value2-0-4=track
