  Hello

  While testing Active Reports 9 after switching from AR6 I’ve noticed a problem in how AR9 handles RTF tables.
  
  In our application we created an RTF table (attached under example_rtf_table.zip). When opened in Rich Text Box → Load File in AR6 the table acts as expected - bulleting is set only for last cell.
  
  
  
  However when loaded the same file in AR9 designer the bulleting is thrown all over the table.
  
  
  
  Why does this act this way? Is there any way to make it work like in AR6?

  Hello,

  This seems to be working fine at my end.
  
  I opened the RTF file in AR9,10 and 11 and found the output same as attached.

  I have tested this issue with v9.5.6334.0, please make sure you are testing with same build.

  Thanks,

  Hello.
  
  Thank you for your response, but please note that the behavior you managed to reproduce is not a desired one. Please re-read my original post, I’d like this table to behave like in AR6, that is bullet formatting only in last cell.

  Hello,

  I tested this issue with AR6.34797.0(SP3) and it looks the behavior is different but not the once you shown in your image. Please refer to the attached image.
  
  Could you please check with the Sp3 and let me know if you see the same result?
  
  You can download the build from here:
