Formatting Nested Lists in Rich Text element

[mhsu_pw]

I want to make nested lists where the second layer has a different starting character from the first - an unordered list nested within an ordered list.

Example :

1. top-level thing
   • sub-thing
   • another sub-thing
2. another top-level thing
3. third top-level thing

Here’s the plain text of what I wrote for the above :

1. top-level thing
   - sub-thing
   - another sub-thing
2. another top-level thing
3. third top-level thing

This renders differently in this help box than it does in a Rich Text element. Based on this example above, it is possible to nest an unordered list in an ordered list in Markdown.

However, if I use exactly the same characters in a Rich Text element, it renders the following :

1. top-level thing
   1. sub-thing
   2. another sub-thing
2. another top-level thing
3. third top-level thing

How do I get the first example of nested lists render in a Rich Text element in a Glide app?

Thank you.

Oddly, HTML returns the same result with intermixed OL and UL tags, which is really what the markdown translates into. I’m not sure where the breakdown occurs since HTML should be getting rendered correctly. Seems like a bug on Glide’s end, but I’m not sure how or why.

<ol>
    <li>First ordered list item
        <ul>
            <li>Unordered list item</li>
            <li>Another unordered list item</li>
        </ul>
    </li>
    <li>Second ordered list item
        <ul>
            <li>Unordered list item</li>
            <li>Another unordered list item</li>
            <li>Yet another unordered list item</li>
        </ul>
    </li>
    <li>Third ordered list item</li>
</ol>

thanks for confirming - I’ve changed this to a bug, and hopefully we get an answer soon.
