Example file from

Add a note about paragraph DF settings and a „Clear Formatting“ button to the
new Bullets and Numbering dialog, if there is paragraph DF applied on any
paragraphs with the list style.

To make the new Bullets and Numbering dialog more user friendly it would make
sense to add a note telling users that the list settings may be overridden by
paragraph level direct formatting. 
Currently it is possible to set a numbering on several paragraphs, then
overriding their indent settings with paragraph direct formatting. This is not
reflected in the bullet and numbering dialog, so the user (perhaps not the same
person who made the paragraph formatting) can start modifying the settings and
be surprised that they „don’t work“. (they do, after removing the paragraph
formatting).

1. Open attached file
2. Notice the second paragraph has larger left indent than the others
3. Right click on the first paragrap, select List - > Bullets & Numbering
4. On the Postion tab change Aligned at to 1 cm, Indented at to 3 cm
→ The a and c paragraphs formatting changes, but b stays the same. There is no
indication in the dialog why did it not change (pre-existing paragraph
formatting).
