Summary0017143: em dash is cutted before a non breakable space
DescriptionHi,

A en and an em dash ('tiret quadratin et demi-quadratin') are not signs that can be put at the end or the begin of a line, in order not to be confused with the simple dash for dividing words.

cf. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiret (third point in Tiret moyen): sorry for the reference in French only.

The only way to not cut before the em dash is to add a non breakable space (and all their little brothers like thin space, etc.). Scribus should not cut and let the em dash at the end.

But it does!

cf. my example below.

Note that it works with en dash and fails with em dash. It should work with the both :)
Steps To Reproducecf. my paragraph. You need to introduce a em dash followed by a non breakable space at the end of your line in order to let Scribus cut it.

There is a clash of rules in Unicode as Unicode line breaking algorithm explicitly allows line break before and after an em dash:

Grrr...

Do you think we could have a work around with Scribus? Like to set up an option to not allow a break before and after an em dash?

May be I'm wrong, but I think it is not a lot to do. The option changes only the status of this character.

Thanks,
