Often when I open the file some or all of the bullets show as squares, but when I open the Bullets properties I see that the gear is still there. Worse, cutting then pasting the gear character back in place fixes the problem! But then I save, close, reopen and some of the gears are missing again. The file is attached. Note that in the sections with dates, the format is a table and not a list. The last two sections are in fact lists. Thanks in advance for any help or advice. All the bullets are showing as ⚙ here. OOo 3.2.0 (ubuntu) and OOo 3.2.1 (standard) - both linux of course.

While you have the Paragraph Style dialog open to define your custom paragraph style, define the Numbering style (choices: Lists 1 through 5 and Numbering 1 through 5) you want to use with this custom paragraph style. Close that dialog. Click the Numbering styles icon and modify the style you just chose in the Paragraph Style dialog so that the bullet used is the Unicode gear character. Close this dialog. Then use this custom paragraph style each time you want to use this bullet.

Maybe. I have an English-language version of the same document that does not display this issue, and the gears appear fine elsewhere (such as in the tables). Therefore I doubt that it is a font problem. -- Dotan Cohen http://gibberish.co.il http://what-is-what.com - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.org

Thanks, Dan, that is a good idea and I will try it. -- Dotan Cohen http://gibberish.co.il http://what-is-what.com - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.org
