non-breaking space for text in button control

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 371

Hello

Is there a way to create a non-breaking space in text in a button control? (  does not work)

I'm using a 'dash' as a workaround but it is not pretty!

Thank you in advance for any suggestions.

    Hi @Englishweb ,

    This will put a space in

    ThisItem.Student & " " & ThisItem.S1Subject

    not sure what you mean by non-breaking space as you can control the warp (if any) with the width of the button.

    Hello Warren,

    Thanks for your quick reply.

    Yes, that works for 1 space max, but the info in the button is still a bit squashed. I was trying to separate the text with a bigger gap between each item. Maybe this isn't possible?
