Prevent line break for certain characters (whitespace, hyphen, colon)

[Stefan]

We have a longer text in our report, which also contains this string "ISO 5834-1:2019", which we don't want to break into a new line.

Reporting Services seem to have the possibility to use the chr()-function to inject 'unbreakable' characters, but this doesn't seem to work in Telerik Reports.

How can we make sure, that there is no line break possible for the given string? 
(Line break in the rest of the text is ok, though.)

Hi Stefan,

If I understand correctly, you want to ensure that the string "ISO 5834-1:2019" does not split across two lines, for example, with "ISO" appearing on one line and "5834-1:2019" on the next due to the space. To achieve this, I recommend using an HtmlTextBox item for the text, as it supports HTML entities like ` `, which represents a non-breaking space, and `‑`, which represents a non-breaking hyphen:

ISO 5834‑1:2019

For your reference, I am also attaching a muted screen recording that showcases this behavior. Could you please take a look at it and let me know if such a solution works for you?
