Known issues

Known issue 1: Ordered and unordered lists overwrite each other when created immediately after one another. To avoid this, place any other type of content between the two lists.

Issue example	Result
1. Ordered First item 2. Ordered Second item 3. Ordered Third item - Unordered First item - Unordered Second item - Unordered Third item	(opens full-size image in a new tab)
- Unordered First item - Unordered Second item - Unordered Third item 1. Ordered First item 2. Ordered Second item 3. Ordered Third item	(opens full-size image in a new tab)

Solution example	Result
- Unordered First item - Unordered Second item - Unordered Third item --- or # [any non-list content] 1. Ordered First item 2. Ordered Second item 3. Ordered Third item	(opens full-size image in a new tab)

Known issue 2: The Catalog list view does not show blueprint descriptions.
