Description A (Andy) 2015-02-13 11:27:56 UTC
If you want to change from Numbering to Bullets in IMPRESS it does not work properly.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open IMPRESS
2. Write any text into the main text area
3. Click the Bullets On/Off button in the toolbar at the top

Interim Result: The entered line gets a bullet.

4. Click the Numbering On/Off button in the toolbar at the top

Interim Result: The line changes to a numbering.

5. Click the Bullets On/Off button in the toolbar at the top

Result: The line does not change to a bullet as expected, but has now no bullet.  It should change to a bullet and in addition it is also not consistent because it works the other direction properly.


Reproducible with LO 4.4.0.3, Win 8.1.

Repro 7.4+.
Change from Bullets to Numbering and back to Bullets resets style, as can better be seen with steps in duplicated bug 108878. So new click created a new bullet, that's why color is lost.

Bullet differs after changing numbered list item to a bullet item
Comment 17 Michael H 2025-12-23 18:00:13 UTC
Test of 26.2.beta1 with Ubuntu 25.10.

The change from numbered list to unordered list is now possible - thank you!

But now the bullet does NOT fit to the standard bullet. The bullet looks like as it was direct formated. See my attachement. 

Steps to reproduce
1. open Impress and create a presentation with template bee hive.
2. insert 3 paragraphs
3. select the paragraphs an press the unordered list (bullet) button
4. select first line an press the ordered list (numbered) 
5. select first line and press the unordered list (bullet) button

Result
First line has a bullet that differs from the bullets in line 2 and 3.

Expected result
First line has a bullet that does not differ from line 2 and 3.

See attachment.

Set Status to reopened - I hope this is the correct way to do this.

> Test of 26.2.beta1 with Ubuntu 25.10.

You have tested with the incorrect version. The fix went toward 26.2 RC2 *yesterday* while you were testing with a beta from *two weeks ago*. You may test with a daily build: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Installing_in_parallel/Linux#Automated_installation
Comment 19 Michael H 2025-12-23 19:19:04 UTC
Tested now with 26.8.alpha daily build.
It works fine now.
Thank you and sorry for the noise.
