Numeric values are not recorded in "bullets and numbering" dialog when "OK" or "enter" used (Writer and Presentation)

(Note: there is an example of a similar action which _does_ work, below, to provide comparison with how and why this doesn't work) How to create the problem: A.1. In presentation (also works in Writer), create three bullets with some text (this is the same if you use one or three, but three gives better context) A.2. Select the text in the middle bullet, or simply put the cursor in the middle bullet A.3. Open the bullets and numbering dialog (format > bullets and numbering) A.4. In the "position" tab, select the text box for the "spacing to text" entry (you may want to select level 1 bullets on the left, in which case this problem also occurs with the "indent" box) A.5. Type a number, like 5 A.6. Press enter The formatting does not change. It appears that the same problem occurs in Writer, as well. Example of similar case that does work: B.1. In presentation (also works in Writer), create three bullets with some text (this is the same if you use one or three, but three gives better context) B.2. Select the text in the middle bullet, or simply put the cursor in the middle bullet B.3. Open the paragraph formatting dialog (format > paragraph) B.4. In the "indents and spacing" tab, select the current value for (for example) Spacing above paragraph. B.5. Type a number, like 5 B.6. Press enter The new value is recorded as 5 (units - in my case, centimetres) - RG>
Reassigned.
