Nested numbered lists

Everybody loves a list! However, the way that numbered lists are implemented here is not always the best or what people want. In particular, I often use nested lists, either bullets or numbered. I find that the way numbered lists work is not the optimum way that people would necessarily use them. What we get is the following:

  1. First main item
    1. subitem 1
    2. subitem 2
  2. Second main item
    1. subitem 1
    2. subitem 2
  3. etc etc etc

What I would like to see (or have the option of selecting):

  1. First main item
    a. subitem 1
    b. subitem 2
  2. Second main item
    a. subitem 1
    b. subitem 2
  3. etc etc etc

For me this seems a much more natural way of ordering numbered lists. Is this something that would be possible to implement in the next update? Please??!! :smile:

Thanks for the feedback!

We hope to add more formatting options in future, and this would certainly be a good one.

Kind regards,

I find this feature quite important as pasting a nested list into Agenda from another source ends up in a mess at the moment. Please support this nested list style, and ideally also recognise that text copied is of this style and automatically apply it. Thank you!

Hi,
Good idea. We usually use:

  1. xxxxx
    1.1 …
    1.2 …
    Many thx Willi
