[reportlab-users] Non-displaying bullets in paragraphs

[Dinu Gherman]

Hi,

I've found a suspicious behaviour with paragraphs implementing defi-
nition lists with bullets.

Apparently, terms (bullets) are not displayed if the following text
(their definition) is empty or blank. OTOH, this following text *is*
displayed if the term (bullet) is empty or blank.

This is something I consider to be an asymmetry. Can anybody say
if this is to be expected or if it should be considered a bug?

Please find attached a sample PDF and its generator file.

Regards,

Dinu
