I have Transit NXT SP 4.

I have a client that wants me to insert non-breaking spaces in certain locations, but try as I might, I can't get Transit to display them. In "User preferences | Special characters", I set "Display non-break spaces as" to show something, but still nothing displays.

Anybody familiar with this issue?

Thanks!

I have non-breaking spaces set to "SP", and they are displayed correctly (e.g. before a colon in a FR text). I'm using NXT SP 4 as well.

What type of non-breaking spaces are you trying to display?

Ben

Hi Ben,

I'm trying to insert ordinary non-breaking spaces using "Edit | Character map | Spaces + Dashes | NON BREAK. SPACE". Are there any other possibilities that I'm overlooking? I can insert a space, but it displays just like an ordinary space so it's impossible to proofread.

Perhaps it's a problem with Windows 7 64-bit. I have noticed some other oddities using Transit NXT on this computer, e.g. when I type ctrl-F to open the Find/Replace menu, initially the "Find Ne

Thanks,

Could be a Win64 problem May 13, 2011

Sorry but I can't help. The non-breaking spaces appear correctly on my 32-bit Windows 7 system.

You might try to contact Star Transit support.

Alt+0160 May 16, 2011

Try using Alt+0160 for your NB space. It works for me, but then I am on 32-bit Win7.
