Rich Text Known Bugs

Nested Lists

Issue

When an ordered list (using numbers to enumerate the list items, e.g. "1., 2., 3.") is nested inside an unordered list (using simple bullet points or other characters to define list items)—or vice versa (nesting an unordered list inside an ordered list), the nested list items are incorrectly formatted and don't nest properly.

Note: This occurs when the author switches a list's formatting style before indenting.

Workaround

Indent the text then switch list formatting styles.
