Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 45592
too complex newline editing near numbering/bullet lists.
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:38:26 UTC
To reproduse bug: 1. Open new writer document. 2. Turn on numbering list. 3. write few numbered lines. 4. try insert unnumbered newline before first number. To do this you can position cursor just before number in numbered item, and press enter... but instead of new line, you get new numbered item (numbered item you should get if position cursor AFTER number and press enter). 5. After you successfully inserting new line, try to delete it. :) To do this i placed cursor in new line before numbered list, and pressed "delete". I expected, that new line will be deleted, and numbered list shifts one line up. But result i got was deleted new line and deleted first number in numbered list.
MRU->FL: the behaviour is not optimal here. I think, when placing cursor left of numbering label, an enter should give - an empty unnumbered paragraph if there's no numbered paragraph above - an empty numbered paragraph if there's a numbering above
Created attachment 27335 [details] I have issue like this. Try to remove empty line before table.

jrahemipour -> mru: I second your suggestion. This would be an useful behaviour. Nevertheless I took a short look at MSO 2003 / 2007: If you place the cursor behind the number and insert a new paragraph, both do not insert an empty unnumbered paragraph. But it is not possible to place the cursor left of the number at all. If you place the cursor behind the number and insert a manual page break, this will insert an empty unnumbered paragraph on the previous page. This should be respected in OOo as well.
