I have an issue with numbered lists.

Numbers aren't displayed.. I'm using "Indesign 17.0" and "Minion Pro" font that is Glifi complete .

It is because you have deleted the autonumbering metacharacter (^#). See my screen shot

Are you sure it is a numbered list? It looks like a bullet list.

Yes, I'm sure.. It happen because Indesign don't recognise numbers.

You have an error in the settings of the dialogue box.

In the field labeled Numero: you have .^t (period, carrot, t which creates a period followed by a tab).

 

Change that to: #.^t (pound sign, period, carrot t).  The # generates the number in the list.
