One place is in Navigator entries tooltips. Similar problem is with units in various dialogs, writing number-unit together without space is unacceptable in Estonian. When its abbreviation, I can bear it out (many ...s having not heard about nonbreaking space use this style), but whole words, like 0point, 2point, 10point, it looks ugly even in US English. ;) (Format - Character - Layout - Spaces eg.) Or look at File - Properties - Internet. Someone has to be very proud about designing this: "Update document every [XX] seconds" "Redireft from this document after [XX] seconds" I bet there are languages who have no idea what to write instead 'every' or 'after' because in their language this word comes after number, so they use ugly hacks, as making long and fuzzy sentences or taking last word from first row... ;) ain --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
