I've come across this issue in three separate sections of the document, and can bypass it by re-typing the text somewhere else and then deleting the impacted section of the document, but I want to understand the setting which is preventing my lists from working. Even after selecting a bullet type, clicking back on the bullet dropdown shows the current type as 'None'.

Right-click the highlighted text and select Paragraph to open the.

The bullet symbols will not be highlighted. The paragraph's Style has been correctly set to 'List Paragraph', which all of the bulleted lists have, and I can change this style to another type and then back to 'List Paragraph' and still the bullet won't show. Click and drag to select the bulleted list. Here are two separate bulleted lists with the same style applied, the former with my setting problem and the second functioning normally: I've tried changing every font or paragraph setting I can think of which may be impacting this. If I try copying and pasting the line of text into an existing bullet list, it causes the bullet in the existing list to disappear. When I select the block of text and press any 'bullet' style, the text indents (as if bulleted), but no bullet shows. In one particular word document (.docx in Word 2013) I keep encountering an issue where I'm unable to create bulleted lists, and I've tried everything I can think of to make the bullets appear.
