Formatting for nested lists

Posting some garbage text here to try getting a nested list to properly format, since there doesn't seem to be a preview button before posting...

Priority: Medium
Expected Behaviour: Notifications in upper right portion of screen should contract like they normally do on mouse-out (or... see notes below)
What actually happens: Notifications remain stuck in an expanded state after mousing-out, depending on how you move the mouse away from them
Reproduction Steps:
- Mouse over a notification in the upper right portion of screen to cause its text body to expand downwards (an event notification, not one of the alerts in the lower right)
- Move the mouse straight left (but not too fast/far) outside of the notification, to cause its text body to contract upwards
- Notification should now be stuck open

alternate format test:

Priority: Medium
Expected Behaviour: Notifications in upper right portion of screen should contract like they normally do on mouse-out (or... see notes below)
What actually happens: Notifications remain stuck in an expanded state after mousing-out, depending on how you move the mouse away from them
Reproduction Steps:
[**]Mouse over a notification in the upper right portion of screen to cause its text body to expand downwards (an event notification, not one of the alerts in the lower right)
[**]Move the mouse straight left (but not too fast/far) outside of the notification, to cause its text body to contract upwards
[**]Notification should now be stuck open
Notes: Based on the fact that this doesn't work when mousing-out of the top or the bottom of the notifications, I'd wager this bug isn't possible to reproduce if the notifications didn't grow in width upon mousing-out on the left, since it seems to be getting confused when the new larger width causes it to grow underneath the cursor for 1 frame before it recontracts again the next. However, it seemed strange to me that the notifications reduced their width when expanded in the first place, since it actually cuts off the title text a little bit. So maybe the expected behavior should be that the notifications shouldn't change in width at all? I dunno. I'll leave it to you to declare the best solution.

Looks good to me. GJ closing them.

Edit: 2nd one, not so much.

mm... not like JIRA then. Guess first approach with additional list tags is only option.

Took me hours to get these tags right.

I left a group page cluttered with rubbish.

Long standing request when I first tried it...

Yeah, i managed to stumble upon that when going through some old threads.

It was a ton of help.

I was basically clueless as how to how these nested lists worked.
