How to insert a non-breaking space?

[Reikun]

Hi, I have a character whose name has a space in it ("De Clercq"), but I'd like to keep the name together when it's displayed in narration/dialogue.

For example, after a long line it gets displayed like:

Code: Select all

We followed the cat around the neighborhood, but had to stop because De
Clercq called us to come home.

I want it to display like:

Code: Select all

We followed the cat around the neighborhood, but had to stop because
De Clercq called us to come home.

Is there an escape character or a text tag for non-breaking space?

You have to use a "non-breaking space" character instead of the space. I don't think Renpy supports a no-break text-tag.

Try using unicode symbol U+00A0. It works for me, but depends on the font you are using. Sometimes a weird character might appear.

Code: Select all

$ name = "De\u00A0Clercq"

Thank you! This worked perfectly.
