Description Joel Madero 2015-03-23 14:56:43 UTC
Leave this to UX to decide if this is desired behavior.


Steps:
1. Open writer;
2. Set ruler margin (using bottom triangle marker) to 1" (or just greater than 0);
3. Activate bullets;
4. Deactivate bullets


Observed: Ruler marker goes away, margin goes back to default

Expected: I'm not sure why deactivating the bullet would/should have an impact on the ruler marker that was set before activating the bullet.

Again - I'm not sure this is a bug - requesting UX-Advise.


Thanks

Interesting issue. It does not happen when formatting is done per style meaning paragraph > indent before = 2cm, or the like. So it looks like the indentation is not defined for the default style, or not well reset when the numbering is disabled. It's a normal bug in my opinion.

Still happens in

Comparing to Word, enabling bullet/numbering removes the Hanging indent setting, but keeps the Left/Right indent settings of the paragraph. 
Maybe doing similarly could be a sane thing in Writer as well.
