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.
Hi there, Christine. On Windows keyboards with a number pad, you can use
Alt+0160
to add non-breaking spaces to your Rise 360 text, including course and lesson titles. Yay!For now, it's not a feature that works with Mac OS. We'll let you know if that changes.

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.

Hi Trina. How about non-breaking spaces within regular text?

Hi Crystal, is there any way to make this work within Marker descriptions on an Labeled Graphic? Alt+0160 isn't working there.

Hi Crystal, no-break space wiht Alt+0160 does not work in Rise 360

Thanks for posting a solution, Crystal.
Everyone, please see the shot below, where the 1st lesson title uses a normal space, and the 2nd title uses ALT+0160.
Important: For this to work, you need to use the numeric keypad on the right of your keyboard, rather than the number keys below the function keys at the top. (So it's better suited to full-size desktop keyboards, and mightn't work on all laptops.)

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 « double chevrons » 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!

Hello, i would like to know what is the solution because i have the same problem. ReguIarly, i have to insert unbreaking spaces in Rise. Those are needed frequently in french ponctuation and in some other cases too. Thanks!
Hello, Hélène. I don't have a workaround for you, right now. I'll update you here if there's a way to add non-breaking spaces to your Rise text.

Thank you!
Hi Georg,
We're seeing that those non-breaking spaces using Alt+0160 aren't working as they did before either. We documented this for our team, and we'll update you if anything changes. Thanks for letting us know how this is affecting your work!
