Title: UILable: Overflow wraps with ResizeFreely when spacing-x is greater than zero
Post by: wcoastsands on January 30, 2014, 01:14:06 AM

Just updated to the latest versions of NGUI (v3.0.9f7) and Unity (4.0.4, from 4.0.2). I'm currently using Dynamic fonts throughout my project. Since the update, anywhere that I have a UILable with Overflow set to ResizeFreely, and the X value for Spacing set to an int greater than 0, the last character in the string wraps to a second line.

Saw in the release notes there were improvements done on the UILable with Dynamic fonts. Any chance something got overlooked with respect to Overflow and Character Spacing?

Or maybe I'm missing something else here. Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Seeing some relevant posts float to the top of the support forum here. Going to try a few of the suggestions listed in the following links, including switching to bitmap fonts. Really need the ability to use ResizeFreely, specifically to handle formatting changes between localization options.

Cool. Thanks for the heads up :) Saves me some time. Will work around it for now. Thanks!

Still seems to be happening in 3.4.7

How can I repro it, jjsteele?

UPDATE: v3.4.8 seems to have fixed this issue, thanks!  I'll leave my original post anyway:

I'm getting this problem regardless of x spacing.  It occurs when overflow is set to ResizeFreely.  For a given UILabel, it will only happen when a certain amount of characters are input.  For example, when I input "<score>", I get the following:

<score
>

but when I input "<score1>", It displays correctly:

<score1>

Changing the x spacing will change when the bug shows up.  The above example was with x spacing set to 0.  Changing the x spacing to 2 made "<score>" display properly, but "<score1>" was displayed like so:

<score1
>

As most of my labels are ever-changing in character length during runtime, sometimes they display correctly and sometimes they don't.  I am using a bitmap font.
