            Bug ID: 139924
           Summary: Tools > Autocorrect > Apply with "Replace bullets
                    with" only works with Default Style - contra help page
                    - which is wrong?
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.2.0.0.alpha0+ Master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: sdc.blanco at youmail.dk

0. Tools > AutoCorrect > AutoCorrect Options - Options tab
   uncheck all [T] fields.  uncheck all [M] fields, except for 
   "Replace bullets with"

1.  According to: 

 https://help.libreoffice.org/7.2/en-US/text/shared/01/06040100.html

Replace bullets with

Converts paragraphs that start with a hyphen (-), a plus sign (+), or an
asterisk (*) directly followed by a space or a tab, to bulleted lists. This
option only works on paragraphs that are formatted with the "Default", "Text
Body", or "Text Body Indent" paragraph styles. 

2.  Make a test file according to the instructions given in help.

3.  Then Tools > AutoCorrect > Apply

Actual Results:  Works for "Default Paragraph Style";  does not work for "Text
Body" or "Text Body Indent"

Expected:  Works according to Help page.

Additional Information:

1. Well-known that many Tools > AutoCorrect > Apply only work with "Default
Paragraph Style".   No opinion or preference expressed here about expected LO
behavior.  


2.  Rather the main question of this ticket:   

   Is this behavior considered a "bug" and therefore the help page should not
be changed?  

   or 

  Is the help page wrong about expected behavior, and therefore should be
changed?
