List creation and editing is a complicated process to program and the Scrivener developers have not had the time to fix the bugs. I don’t know much about the Scrivener programming staff for the Windows version, but I suspect they are few and are overworked.
Holy sh…moly, so it is too complicated for the overworked staff that does not have time to fix bugs? What kind of staff is this? Sounds like a miracle Scrivener is still running
And Scrivener is a word processing program only in the loosest sense of the word.
So what kind of program is it?
The list feature, even if working correctly, would be more of a convenience feature.
Holy m…so may be a cool fancy feature for sophisticated people. Like the ruler and text color and text alignment, etc.
@Ponny, here is what several of us do if we need to use lists beyond the point that Scrivener will be sensible with them:

Thank you for the link, too. I am very sorry, I don’t understand at all what I had to do to somehow use or make working lists. Is there perhaps a step by step instruction?
It notes at the bottom that Word itself is not perfect with indented lists
It might be enough if they just worked in a way that made them useful.
