dotCooCoo 2f445e117f Type: Convert to Text makes a list's bullets and numbers characters of its text
The reference app's Type › Bullets and Numbering › Convert to Text turns
the bullets and numbers of the selected list paragraphs into editable
text. VectorCraft drew list markers but could not convert them.

Type › Bullets and Numbering › Convert to Text (type.convertListToText,
text.convertListToText) puts each list paragraph's marker at the start
of the paragraph as characters: the bullet, or the number and its
period as the paragraph showed it, then a tab, in the marker's font,
size and color. The paragraph leaves its list. Where the marker's tab
went to the left indent, the paragraph gets a plain left tab stop
there, so the text after the tab starts where it did. Where the
marker's tab went to a stop with a leader, or to a right, center or
decimal stop, a plain stop where the tab ended keeps the converted tab
there without the leader; right, center and decimal stops between the
marker and that place are removed. Past the left indent this applies
only to a paragraph with no tab of its own. In threaded type the
numbers are those the story counted, and a paragraph that goes on into
the next frame is converted once, where it starts. A right-to-left
paragraph with no direction set gets the Right to Left direction when a
letter or roman numeral in front of it would make it run left to right.
The change is one undo step. The Type tool's caret stays next to the
character it was next to, and in threaded type it goes with that
character to the frame it moved to, which becomes the selection when it
was not selected.

With the Every-line Composer a paragraph that holds a tab is broken
line by line, so a converted paragraph can break its lines at other
places than the list paragraph did.
