Description pmike 2006-04-10 06:33:47 UTC 
If input field contains unbreakable space (U+00A0), the space is ignored when
wrapping text to next line.

I checked with "2.0.2  German version WIN XP: [680m5(Build9011)]" and can not
confirm that problem, pls. see attached 'testile.odt'.

@pmike: 
Additional question: do you really observe that only in WRITER?

"Was on the wrong steamer" ;-)
I checked with "2.0.2  German version WIN XP: [680m5(Build9011)]" and confirm
that problem for 'testfile.odt'.

Yes, such fields cannot support such characters. "Works as undesigned"...

If you insert a user field formatted as a french currency the string to display
looks like "150 000,00 €" and must contains nonbreakable spaces.

With OOo, such strings may be broken when the line is wrapped to next line.

I've tryed to use a user defined format containing nonbreakable space, without
success.

I've tried to work only with strings, and replaced spaces with nonbreakable
space via a macro when affecting the value to a user field, without success.

Nonbreakable spaces within amounts are mandatory in french areas. So I think
that not supporting such characters in user fields should be considered as a defect.

Best regard,

Ph.

This bug makes impossible to write properly and its not only think of french currency. Most slavic languages forbid splitting of lines after specific prepositions. Therefore I think it cannot be considered an trivial issue.
