| Summary | 0000237: A "-" in label of user elements causes line feed | ||||
| Description | If you create a user element (or copy a default element and save as user element) "-" in label will cause a line feed. "-" in a label is essential as it is the default prefix. This must not cause a line feed. It should be like "=P+L-A" but it results in "=P+L- A" with line feed! | ||||

A label only wraps when its text field has a fixed width. The width is set per text field in the element editor, and new text fields take their default from Settings ("dynamic text width"). With no width set (-1, the default), "=P+L-A" stays on one line. With a width set, QElectroTech follows Qt's normal word wrap, which allows a line break after a hyphen, so a label wider than the field breaks after the "-". Could you check whether the label field in your element has a width set, and whether clearing it fixes it for you? Whether labels should ever wrap inside a fixed width is a question for the developers. |
