I could use alt255(have to enter the numbers with the numeric keypad) to get extra spaces between words in the text box when I was using using VSD6.06. Since upgrading to VSD7.18, when I do this it looks fine in the software but it shows up as square boxes in software and default browser instead of blank spaces.
Would anyone know why this is happening?
Thanks,
yeto

Yeto, To get blank spaces in text box's in VSD make your text color the same as the background their on in the area that you want spaces to be. I use the _ symbol for my spaces.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. That is a good idea but I am wondering if there would be a chance that Google would see that as hidden text.
Kind regards,
yeto

It's not hidden it's just not visible.

Use as it displays as a blank space without any character being displayed. Just string together as many as you need.

How would you use   in a VSD text box? Or are you putting the text in an html box?

I'm not using VSD so my advice may not be valid if you can't insert html into a text box.
