--- Comment #7 from Regina Henschel <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Eyal Rozenberg from comment #4) > The ODF situation here is interesting: ยง16.32 says a list is supposed to > have either bullets, numbers or images; but one can supposedly create a list > (or list style) without providing any of the three ODF elements specifying > the use of bullets, numbers or images. So maybe bullet-less lists _are_ > supported? You can create a list (element <text:list>) without setting a list style. Then an implementation-dependent list style is used. LibreOffice currently uses a bulleted list in such cases. I never would go that way, because it has huge interoperability consequences. A list style is given by the <text:list-style> element. Either of the child elements <text:text:list-level-style-number> or <text:list-level-style-bullet> or <text:list-level-style-image> must exists. Something else is not possible. The bullet character is defined in the `text:bullet-char` attribute of the <text:list-level-style-bullet> element. This attribute is mandatory. That means, that a bullet list without specifying a bullet character is not possible. https://docs.oasis-open.org/office/OpenDocument/v1.3/os/schemas/OpenDocument-v1.3-schema-rng.html#text-list-level-style-bullet-attr But since U+20 SPACE or U+200B ZERO WIDTH SPACE or any other space character works as "bullet" I see no problem. The use case "programmatically" is not common, thus we can expect an advanced user. And for screen readers, it would need a test, whether they say anything about the bullet character or whether they report only the list level.

It can be changed there, same as for any other list. I do not support this enhancement request. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
