Description: the default positions for bullets and numbered lists is inches. This wastes a lot of page space, and most of the world is metric. I take the time in the toolbar to correct it to what I want for the 10 levels. LO then changes it for the current and immediately following par's. when I then add a new list late, the setting have reverted to inches. Steps to Reproduce: 1.change style to bulleted list 2.position is based on inches 3.change the toolbar related settings Actual Results: is as set for current paragraphs when revert to normal text then add a new bulleted list, inches are back Expected Results: should do as chnaged Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: [Information automatically included from LibreOffice] Locale: en-GB Module: TextDocument [Information guessed from browser] OS: Linux (All) OS is 64bit: yes Version: 24.8.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: e83c7ec2f4d801365235bf56d7cc8cf31ef4a00e CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 6.5; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: en-GB (en_GB.UTF-8); UI: en-GB Calc: threaded
Note that the default par (or body text) would include "no list", but if i want to add a list on the fly and then choose the toolbar icon to do so, it should be based on the values that I have set in the toolbar icon (wherever that is recorded.
I assume you mean what we see in Format - Bullets and numbering - Position. For me they are centimeters. If I go to Tools - Options - LibreOffice Writer - General - Settings: Measurement unit and change it to Inch, the units in bullet position fields are in inches. Can you confirm what you have as the measurement unit in options? In my testing, I just added a bulleted list and went to format it. Set to NEEDINFO. Change back to UNCONFIRMED after you have provided the information.
