             Bug #: 51953
           Summary: Non-breaking space disappears if a punctuation mark is
                    directly followed by a bracket
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: x86 (IA32)
        OS/Version: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Linguistic
        AssignedTo: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: darkdadaah at yahoo.fr


In languages like French Libreoffice correctly inputs a non-breaking space in
front of some punctuation marks (? ! ; :). However, if this mark is followed by
a character that is not a space nor a punctuation mark, the non-breaking space
disappears. This happens in Writer as well as Calc.

Steps to reproduce :
* In a French text, write « (d'où? ». Libreoffice automatically adds a
non-breaking space so that we get « (d'où ? ».
* Add a closing parenthesis to write « (d'où ?) » and the space disappears; we
get « (d'où?) ».

Notes :
* The non-breaking space remains if it is written manually afterwards
* The effect is the same if several punctuation marks (that require a space)
are repeted : « (d'où?!?) »
