justinmclean opened a new issue #89: Label text strings are "trimmed"
URL: https://github.com/apache/royale-asjs/issues/89
 
 
   Any space in the text property of a label are "trimmed". In some cases this can give odd results.
   
   A contrived example:
   (obviously the label could be replaced by a single label in this case but this is just to illustrate the point / issue.)
   
   ```
   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
   <js:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
                   xmlns:js="library://ns.apache.org/royale/basic">
   
      <js:valuesImpl>
          <js:SimpleCSSValuesImpl/>
      </js:valuesImpl>
   
       <js:beads>
            <js:ApplicationDataBinding />
       </js:beads>
   
   
       <fx:Script><![CDATA[
           [Bindable] public var name:String = "John";
           ]]></fx:Script>
   
      <js:initialView>
          <js:View>
              <js:Container>
                  <js:beads>
                      <js:HorizontalLayout />
                  </js:beads>
                  <js:Label text="Hi "/>
                  <js:Label text="{name}"/>
                  <js:Label text=" and welcome"/>
              </js:Container>
          </js:View>
      </js:initialView>
   </js:Application>
   ```
   
   Produces this output:
   ![2017-11-15_15-14-24](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/144504/32818571-298174d8-ca18-11e7-9cba-68a470892a51.png)
   
   HTML keeps spaces for instance the spaces are not trimmed in these HTML examples:
   ```
   <span>Hi </span><span>John</span><span> and welcome</span>
   <span>value: </span><input type="text" />
   ```
   
   Also the same in Flex:
   ```
   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
   <s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009" 
   			   xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark" 
   			   xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx">
   	
   	<s:HGroup>
   		<s:Label text="value " />
   		<s:TextInput />
   	</s:HGroup>
   	
   </s:Application>
   ```
