Non-breaking spaces in Rise?
Hi. Is it possible to insert a non-breaking space into a lesson name (or elsewhere)?
I have a lesson whose name ends with "...Session 3". When viewing the course, the 3 wraps to the 2nd line in the contents pane on the left, as shown in the shot.

I run a quick test, it looks like Alt+0160 is working now.

Hi Craig. Rise lesson titles don't currently support resizing, formatting of text, or the insertion of non-breaking spaces. You can share this need directly with our dev team through a feature request. I'm sure they'd love to hear how your Rise experience could be improved with more editing control over lesson titles.

That's so helpful, Crystal. Thanks very much!
Hi Georg,
Are you seeing text break in the middle of a word in a labeled graphic marker? Can you share a screenshot of that marker? I'd love to get a closer look!

Hi Alyssa, I'm seeing text break between german abbreviations (like z. B. and u. a.), where we would like to have a space but not a break.
I've tried Alt+0160, but it isn't working here.

I'm trying this in regular text now, but it doesn't seem to be working when it seemed to work before. I work with a lot of French copy where French quotes begin and end with ยซ double chevrons ยป that require a non-breaking space between the chevrons and the inner text, but it no longer seems to be working for me.
Thanks for sharing your experience, John. Rise 360 lesson titles don't currently support resizing, formatting of text, or the insertion of non-breaking spaces, but I'll let our team know you need this option.

Sorry, I should clarify.. this is happening in plain paragraph blocks.
Hi there, John. We're seeing that those non-breaking spaces aren't working as they did before either. I'll document this for our team and explain the context for you with French punctuation. If anything changes, we'll let you know here!

Thank you!

Hi Arith,
Thank you very much for this workaround!
To keep the text adaptative, I replaced the space by a dash (-) and applied to this text the colour of the background. This way, the text wil lnver split, whichever size the screen will be.
Sadly, it won't work for titles.
This is not really enjoyable to work with workarounds for such basic needs. Moreover, I don't know how the screen-reader will interpret that.

Thanks for the workarounds, need this function too!

Thanks for the workaround! It'll be interesting to see what happens to those spaces when we send the course for translation. But I figure I'll cross that bridge when I get there. ๐
Really hope the bug is resolved soon
