             Bug #: 52525
           Summary: : Background Colour for Fields is Used Incorrectly for
                    Bullets, Numbering Digits and Chapter Numbers
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 3.5.5.3 release
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
 Status Whiteboard: BSA
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
        AssignedTo: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: harald-koester at htp-tel.de


Problem description: 

Steps to reproduce:
[1] Open new text document.
[2] Choose a "nice" colour for the background of fields (Tools > Options >
LibreOffice > Appearance > Custom Colors > Field shadings)
[3] Insert two lines with bullets.
[4] Position the cursor in front of a bullet (with arrow key or by mouse
click). The backgrounds of both bullets are now displayed with the chosen
colour of step 2.
[5] Move the cursor back with an arrow key. The background colour for fields
disappears.

The behaviour is equal, if you position the cursor in front of numbering digits
or chapter numbers.

Expected behaviour: No change of background colours.

Additional comments:

(a) If you use several lists (bullets and/or numbered) in a greater document,
not all bullets or digits change their background colour. The conditions for
this behaviour I did not check.

(b) I am not sure if it is necessary, that the cursor can be positioned in
front of numbers and bullets. For example if you press the home key in order to
jump to the beginning of a line, the cursor is not positioned in front of the
bullet/number, but in front the first character after the bullet/number.

(c) It has been argued, that numbers/bullets are also a kind of fields. But if
this is intended 
the background of numbers/bullets should always be displayed in the colour of
fields. This should not depend on the cursor position.
