Text wrap on scale points was created by jfrey1
Hello, I'm having an issue where some of the scale points in certain rated questions aren't appearing correctly. The text of longer words appears to be wrapping (screenshot attached). Is there a fix for this? Thanks!

Yes, using shorter words. ;-)

I don't think that there is much that can be done. The word used is simply too long for the space available for the scale point.

Would need to see the whole question (including subquestion texts) to see if there is potential to reduce subquestion width to provide more space for the answer columns. But as the gained space would be distributed evenly among all answer columns, often you would need to reduce the subquestion width a lot to gain only a little bit more of space per column.

I don't know your case exactly, because we can only see a very small extract of the question, but generally this is more a problem of "lack of space" than actually a Limesurvey problem.

I answer at the LimeSurvey forum in my spare time, I'm not a LimeSurvey GmbH employee.

OK, I'll tweak some things to make the scale points appear better. Thanks!
