Hi again,
maybe an old issue but HOW can I create non-breaking-spaces in the variable sets?
In the past I'd tested it with the   value. Indeed, its xml but in our manual are hundrets of variables without non-breaking spaces, not good
Non-breaking-space for variables

Re: Non-breaking-space for variables
Hi,
That   is the unicode non-breaking space that you'd get from Symbols > Insert Character.
Give us a little more info on what you're trying to accomplish and what you're looking at.
Keep in mind that you can open those variable set files in a text editor to make sweeping changes. Once you determine exactly what you have and what you what to have, there's a good chance that search and replace can fix the issue.

Re: Non-breaking-space for variables
We are often use a couple of variables, such as special disassembly / assembly tools.
In the example below from one variable set we want to avoid a line break between SH and 433.
After making a backup from the variable set I´d often tried what you are saying,
EvaluatedDefinition="SH 433>SH𧊱
Why it is it not working in HTML and PDF?
<Variable
Name="ServiceTool_SH433"
Comment=""
EvaluatedDefinition="SH 433">SH 433
</Variable>

Re: Non-breaking-space for variables
... good idea not to forget the EvaluatedDefinition="SH 433>SH 433
Thx a lot!

Re: Non-breaking-space for variables
But in another project it does not work. In the output no space is visible, but why?
<Variable
Name="Dev1_grille_Nr"
Comment="E-Teil"
EvaluatedDefinition="[010] frontgrille">[010] frontgrille</Variable>

Re: Non-breaking-space for variables
Hi,
Use SHIFT+SPACE to insert a non-breaking space into a variable.

None of the standard codes will work (https://www.toptal.com/designers/htmlar ... ing-space/)

Re: Non-breaking-space for variables
Hi Trent,
sorry for bothering but maybe I´m to stupid to understand
If there is no change to insert any kind of code via editor because it is not working, HOW can I insert it in the standard variable view?
Shift+Space in the standard view does not work.

Re: Non-breaking-space for variables
You won't see any code inserted. There's no apparent difference in the variable text.
When you press SHIFT+SPACE in a variable definition, Flare enters a visual space no different from any other. When generating the output, Flare replaces those SHIFT+SPACEs with .
