Numbered List - Changing Indent Makes Numbers Disappear

I'm using Illustrator 29.1 on a Mac running OS 14.5. Trying to do a simple numbered list has turned into a huge frustration. I have two issues:

 

1. It looks okay as long as the numbers are in single digits, but as soon as we get into double digits, there's not enough space between the bullet and the text. 

2. When I try to adjust the indents to add more space between the numbers and the text, the numbers simply disappear. They only come back if I reset the panel. I've restarted Illustrator, and the bug persists.

Hello @AFox3,

Would you mind changing the alignment to Right and then adjusting the Left Indent to see if it helps?
Also, try updating to the latest version of Illustrator 29.3.1 and sharing your observations.

Looking forward to hearing from you.
