To-do list: switching bulleted styles without losing indent?

That's a great generic guide, but I'm having problems.
  • I created a new multilevel list style named Checkboxes
  • I created a 1 Checkbox style with a checkbox bullet and zero left indent
  • I duplicated those settings for styles named 2 Checkbox and 3 Checkbox
  • I created 3 similar styles with a "checked box" bullet, named 1 Checkbox - done, etc. (Note: these styles will be used in further replies; problems below prevented me from making use of them.)
  • I attached the 1 Checkbox, 2 Checkbox and 3 Checkbox styles to the first 3 levels of the multilevel list
First issue: when I use this multilevel list and enter items, if I press Tab, demoted items are indented but their style doesn't change to 2 Checkbox, as I understand the list style would apply. Also, their numbering level (in the Reveal Formatting window) remains at 1.



Second issue: say I move to a level-3 item and press Shift+Tab. This should demote it to a level 2, right? Except it changes its indent to zero, not 0.5".

So before I go any further with my need to switch from one style to another (to mark completed items), we should examine why the multilevel list isn't behaving as expected. Thanks.
