Roger Whitcomb updated PIVOT-753:
---------------------------------
Attachment: label.patch
Patch originally attached to PIVOT-623 to implement the "wrapChars:'string'"
style on Label to provide a list of possible characters to break the text on.
Perhaps a better name would be "breakChars".
> Provide an alternative to whitespace for wrapping long Label text

> For long Label text that doesn't contain whitespace but with "wrapText:true"
> it would be nice to have an alternative place to wrap the text.
> Possible Solutions:
> - Provide a user-supplied "wrapChars" string containing suggested break
> characters
> - Break on either whitespace or some combination of Character attributes (for
> instance: DASH_PUNCTUATION or CONNECTOR_PUNCTUATION)
> - If there is no whitespace, then break at the exact boundary on whatever
> character is there (could be conditional on another "wrapAnywhere:true" style)
> - Some combination of the above
> - Use ellipsis as in PIVOT-623 without "wrapText" set.
> Note: there was preliminary discussion of this issue as part of the comments
> in PIVOT-623. Moved to a new issue to avoid further confusion of the
> original ellipsis issue there.
