Is there a non-breaking (hard) hyphen that can be used in a Geoserver label?
For a non-breaking space I am able to use char(160) in the view that creates
the label.

Hi Derek,
I don’t know the answer to your question, but can you explain what are
you trying to do? Do you have auto-wrapping enabled?
Cheers
Andrea

Hi Andrea
The screen shot below demonstrates. The 2 I have circled in red show where
the auto-wrapping is undesirable due to the standard soft hyphen being a
potential line break.
I have a non-breaking space after the word 'Erf', but want to keep the whole
description on one line. Idealy I would also like to force a line-break
before. (I've already asked that question)

I see... I still don't have an answer, but I can tell you word breaking is
done using
the standard Java BreakIterator:
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/text/BreakIterator.html
I could not quickly locate any information about non breaking hyphens
related to that class though

Hi Andrea
Seems like the issue is to do with character set support rather than the
BreakIterator.
The non-breaking hyphen is unicode character U+2011
<http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/2011/index.htm> .
I am working on Windows, so using the Windows Character Map, I started
looking for this character in the font I am using, ie. Tahoma. This
particular character isn't defined in Tahoma (or the majority of fonts), but
is defined in "Arial Unicode MS". I copied and pasted the character from
Character Map into my view query (shows as a box since the editor font
dosn't support it), changed the font in the style sheet and went to view the
result only to find that "Arial Unicode MS" isn't included by default in
Windows Server 2012 R2. Copied the font from my Windows 7 machine, installed
on the server, restarted Tomcat, cleared my browser cache and it works as
required.
While experimenting with all of this tried using Postgres' escape string to
insert a line break -- E'\r\n'. The editor replaced this with a physical
line break when I compiled the view. This actually works in forcing a line
break in the label. But due to the auto-wrap created a blank line in the
middle of the label in a lot of cases.
Thank you again for your input.
