issue with nbsp in axis title

[Boris Gheihman]

Since there is no way to center align text I was using non-braking spaces for this task. It wasn't perfect but it worked(at least in version 2014.3.1316). I've tried to update to latest 2015.1.429 version recently and discovered that titles with nbsp in it are completely broken. Here is an example.

Hello Boris,

The change that leads to this behavior is that we now HTML-encode texts. We do this as SVG is not our only rendering target - we support Canvas and PDF as well. These will output the encoded text as they don't have a notion for HTML entities. If we don't encode the text we'll get different results, e.g. during PDF export.

What we suggest instead is to use visual templates for the labels. In combination with the Layout primitive we can produce the same results and much more.

I've prepared a snippet to demonstrate your particular case. Does this make sense?

I wasn't aware of this new "visual templates" feature. I think it will resolve this issue. Thank you for the provided dojo very much.
