Roger Whitcomb commented on PIVOT-753:
--------------------------------------

Went through every use of Label in our (pretty big now) application and the 
wrapping or non-wrapping was perfect.  Places where it used to not wrap because 
of no whitespace are now wrapping nicely and there were no places where 
inappropriate wrap happened.  There are some places where it is parsing RSS 
Feed text and putting into Labels with wrapText on and all these wrapped the 
way they should.


> 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.
