Re: [libreoffice-users] Bullets & Numbering

Hi :)
New questions should always be posted as a fresh new thread with a new
subject-line.  This helps attract people who might have a clue about
the new problem rather than the old one also helps make the archive
more useful.  However, this looks like the same problem to me = it's
just that you have made some progress, just not quite got all the way
yet.

When the numbering starts you find a new tool-bar appears with lots of
different fat arrows pointing up down and sideways.  I usually drag it
to snap-in at the bottom.  It's kinda useful to play around with what
the different arrows do.  When i tried to copy your list and got to g.
iii. i pressed the fat arrow that points left and the list dropped it
from iii to h.

Once again proving that fat things can be useful.  Ok, the arrow is
not hugely fat but it's still very useful.
Regards from
Tom :)
