Use of white-space:pre-wrap in v9 Authoring environment

Post by **hatchjk** » Tue Nov 13, 2007 6:23 pm

In doing some testing under a trial license of Oxygen 9, use of the white-space:pre-wrap property in css (coming from css 2.1) seems to not be supported. The userguide says otherwise ...

Using this property, which will validate once th e CSS validator is set to 2.1, seems to have no effect in the authoring environment, that is, lines of text are not allowed to wrap, and whitespace does not seem to be honored.

Am I overlooking something? Another preference that needs to be set?

Update: whitespace is honored under Oxygen 9's implementation of white-space:pre-wrap. However, I still do not get automatic text wrap in the Authoring environment with this property.

Hello,

I used white-space: pre-wrap in a CSS stylesheet for styling an XML element and it worked correctly. Can you post an example when it does not work?

There is one thing which I see that is not supported: a very long text with no space characters is not wrapped at the end of the view. Is that what you mean?
