Summary0009683: Short Words plugin does not work for frames with Russian text
DescriptionApplying the Short Words plugin to the text frame with Russian text does not alter the text. Doing the same to the English text frame changes the spaces as expected.
Steps To Reproduce1. For reproducing I have created 2 text frames. The first one with "1 kg 1 kg 1 kg 1 kg" text in English, the second one with text "1 ?? 1 ?? 1 ?? 1 ??" in Russian.
2. Select English frame, select Extras - Short Words, use Apply: selected frames, Language: Engish (forced).
3. Text in frame is converted into "1_kg 1_kg 1_kg 1_kg" (where _ is non-breaking space).
4. Select Russian frame, select Extras - Short Words, use Apply: selected frames, Language: Russian(forced).
5. Text is not changed, still "1 ?? 1 ?? 1 ?? 1 ??"
Additional InformationThe font has 0xA0 symbol, the Short Words option window includes "??".
The attached file has 3 screenshorts: frames before using plugin, frames after using plugin, configuration window showing the Russian word.
The same issue I have observed in 1.3.3.14 and upgraded into 1.3.9 in hope it is gone.
TagsNo tags attached.

oops.. looks like this forum does not display Russian chars, replacing them with ??. Consider that ?? in description as russian equivalent for "kg". Screenshots will show all that.

No, wait. I tried resizing the text frame, and it appears that the Short Words extension actually does work. It's just there is no way to distinguish a common space from a non-breaking space. They are both brown circles. Someone might want to fix that :)

So I guess you could close this bug report and open another one for the circles.
