Summary0015087: Non-breaking space doesn't do what is expected when it comes to text alignment
DescriptionInserting a non-breaking space into a text frame is currently inconsequential if "Forced justified" has been selected as the text alignment of choice. Text elements will be subjected to the rigorous text alignment algorithm, which completely ignores the formatting instruction, the latter being "hold these elements together".

This behaviour is unknown in other DTP programmes and also word processors.


The only workaround is to insert a random letter and set the the text colour to "None" for this particular glyph.
Steps To Reproduce- Create a text frame.

- Set the text alignment to "Forced Justified".

- Insert two words separated by a non-breaking space.


--> Scribus treats it exactly like a regular empty space.
