In my first example, the 3rd and 4th lines (things A and B) should be indented under "thing 2". Oops, html got eaten from my previous post.

Because my mind has been corrupted by outlining tools like PowerPoint and Wiki's, I write things like this: - thing 1 - thing 2 - thing A - thing B - thing 3 OneNote doesn't seem to understand that things A and B are actually sub-bullets. The second problem case is when I write a single item that's so long it requires line wrapping, like so: - thing 1 - thing 2, which is very long and may span multiple lines! - thing 3 OneNote doesn't seem to understand that thing 2 is actually all one bullet point and should be kept as such. Also, if I write a list like this and then start inserting or removing text, the dashes do not stay connected to their line items (they are considered "freehand art" and are not attached to the text). After a little editing, the dashes end up in totally the wrong place. I like OneNote in general, but I find it hard to take "natural" notes like this for these reasons. I often end up taking notes in Windows Journal instead for this reason, but then I miss the Todo flags. :) What bothers me is that I like to write long laundry lists of items, like Todo lists.

Or the Tab/Shift Tab key if typing. That seems pretty obvious so if that's not the issue feel free to have them contact me.
