Numbered Lists do not properly reset while inside callouts

Steps to reproduce

  • In a new note, create a callout.
  • Inside the callout, create a numbered list and fill it with any items.
  • Move a few lines down within the same callout and try to create a new numbered list.
  • Observe that the new list continues numbering from the previous list instead of starting at 1.
  • Even manually correcting the numbering (e.g. changing 4. to 1.) does not work — it automatically resets to the wrong continuation value.

Expected result

The new list inside the same callout should start at 1), as it is a separate list.

Actual result

The new list continues numbering from the previous list (e.g., starts at 4) instead of 1)).

Additional information

This happens even if the second numbered list is not inside a callout. Numbered lists don’t terminate properly inside callouts, period. They will try to continue the numbering even outside the callout.

@Valinor, thank you. I was aware of this issue but there wasn’t a bug report yet.

@SublimePeace what you are reporting is a different problem and it will be fixed v1.8.10.
