- **Bear Version** : v2.3.11 (13182)
- **OS Version** : 15.3
- **What were you doing** : creating an ordered list where an entry contains a code block and then a nested unordered list
- **What feature did you use** : Ordered List, Unordered List, Code Block
- **What happened** : the unordered list will not indent under the code block
- **What did you expect to happen** : unordered list able to be indented under code block

The below screenshot shows the situation in Bear, with a code block below it for the markdown.

````auto
1. This is an ordered list
\```md
This is some code
\```
- example
2. This is the second point of an ordered list

````

_Edited – escape code block in code block_

The reason is that the code block is _after_ the first list item, not _inside_ it. Indent the code block to make it part of the first list item.

That makes perfect sense!
