How can I force the text in the name of an icon to break to a new
line?

----------------------- EXAMPLE --------------------------

For example, I might this name for an icon on the desktop:

"XP happy & content"

which might show as:

"XP happy &
content"

but which I want to show with a line break in a different position:

"XP happy
& content"

--------------------- END EXAMPLE ------------------------
 
Hi Will,

Press the space bar after the word happy until the line wraps.

If I use the space bar then the icon's text no longer centers
properly. In fact it starts to look like a bit of a mess!

But I want to *improve* the looks of the text! :-)

Will.

Heh heh! Except that your suggestion doesn't work.

If the screen font magnification is changed or the font or font size
changed then the spaces make a real mess. In fact they make a real
mess without any of those things happening. You have tried it
haven't you? If not then I can tell you that the character alignment
is a joke. See my other post in this thread.

In the end, I am looking to manually force a line break. Do you know
what key combo would generate a line break in the icon text?
