no bullets in wordpad

Neither in the wordpad that comes with wine nor in the original one I get these bullets (similiar to enumeration).

Anyone any idea why?

Probably that symbol is not present in Wine's font(s).

I see the same. When I try to use bullets I see this message on
the command line:

fixme:richedit:ME_HandleMessage EM_FORMATRANGE: stub

I'm guessing this means that richedit isn't finished yet.

Austin suggested that I try to install riched30 from winetricks and it
worked. Funny, I don't see his post in this thread so maybe he emailed
me off list?

Anyway, installing riched30 solved the problem.

Yeah, I forgot to cc wine-users when replying.

File a bug please (check for dupes first).

Yes, it did - but now the ruler is missing (won't be displayed). Can anyone confirm this?

BTW, I took the dll right from my old Windows partition, don't know whether this made any difference.

This means that this function is not implemented completely. I was
working on this to fix it and fully implement it. I'll have to revive
this work and see what needs to be done. However, this will take a
little time as I am also working other issues.

Please file a bug report on this problem. Please re-run wordpad and
add, as an attachment, all the features that you tried, with included
notes, please.
