--- Comment #5 from Regina Henschel <rb.hensc...@t-online.de> ---
The category is "List styles" which covers numbered lists and bullet list. I
agree, that it is confusing to have a style named "List 1" and that should be
changed to "Bullets 1" or similar.

In German the category is "Listenvorlagen" and the items are "Aufzählung #" and
"Nummerierung #". That is the same wording as in the German version of Word. I
haven't got another UI language for Word, at least in the English tooltip of
Word I read "Bullets" and "Numbering". We should look, how Word names this
styles, to help users to migrate.


The problem, that the paragraph styles have not set the list styles in its
setting as default, is a different problem. I consider the current solution as
bad. Reason: Currently we have 40 paragraph styles, which do nearly nothing.
The user always needs to customize them to make them work, and on the other
hand the user cannot delete them.

Therefore I suggest to (1) associate the corresponding list styles as default
or (2) to reduce them to about 3 styles with staggered indentation but without
number/bullet or (3) drop them at all. In case the corresponding list styles
are associated as default, the paragraph styles need to have the same naming as
the corresponding list style.

In my personal use of Writer I prefer solution (3). But I see, that users
migrating from Word would like solution (1). In Word there exists paragraph
styles with integrated numbering, paragraph styles with integrated bullets and
-as third kind- paragraph styles with only staggered indentation.
