It is a new installation.

Interesting is: It is working in my Laptop (Old Toshiba)
but having the issue with Desktop.

What I learned about scribus was from actual projects. But i did find an good example to learn from, was to take the templates designed for other dtp software and recreate them using scribus.

Don't have this version, but if I can suggest you might fill a bugreport and attach the XML file to it.
https://bugs.scribus.net/

Otherwise it will be just foretelling.

"Scribus was not able to load its preferences:
Failed to read prefs XML from "/home/(Usr)/.config/scribus/scribus170.rc": Unexpected ''. at line 121, col 39

Thanks very, very much for going to so much effort to troubleshoot my problem.  Once you helped orient me as to what the various settings were doing (and demonstrate that they *do* work), I was able to find the core of my problem: I have spacing between the bullet glyph and the start of the text, and it was as large as some of my indents.  And some of the differences in bullet list indents were too small, compared to other set spacings.  Which threw everything off, as there wasn't enough space to the left of the first line to put the bullet glyph to the left of it.

Which is a very long ramble.  tl;dr: I have everything laid out so it looks right, and offer again my thanks for your assistance.

For me in 1.6.4 it works in the way that whole paragraph indent moves paragraph to the right and first line indent defines distance from this position. So the first line is indented by (paragraph_indent + first_line_indent).

I've tried your settings (if I understand it correctly) and got a bad result for the second paragraph as well.



What works for me is leaving First line indent set to 0
