------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Nov 28 10:26:45 +0000 2007 ------- Hi - I just wanted to say thanks to everyone for their contribution to this issue. I would say more but am moving flat and have only just assembled my computer temporarily to read my email... My only quick comment is that 'I assume you mean that if a user types scads of spaces within a paragraph, they pretty much deserve whatever ugliness they get' sums it up very well for me. It is in fact the essence of wysiwyg. As a naive user when I type a space I expect to see it at the cursor, not at the end of the previous line, or anywhere else. When I type a character, space or otherwise, up against the margin, I expect it to wrap to the next line not carry on into the margin. The result may be dreadful to the purists, but there are no surprises for me and if I don't like it I can correct it until I do. Or ask someone more knowledgeable for guidance on a better way of achieving my aims. I don't think it's the job of the software to save the user from himself, rather it is to present the simplest behaviour that meets his expectations. When I get settled in a day or two I'll look more at this but would recommend looking very carefully at ms word - when I still used it I was never aware of the end of a line as a concept so it's obviously doing something right. Anyway, thanks again. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
