Eos v2.5 Label Wrap

Loving what I've seen so far with direct selects, especially having the full label text shrink to fit! Thank you for adding that.

Just after quickly checking one of my show files, I'm seeing a small issue with word wrap--labels containing hypens aren't getting wrapped properly, eg "Living Room sconces 120-125" appears as follows:

Living Room s
conces 120-1
25

I tested a few other common punctuation marks, and so far I've only seen it happen with the minus sign/hyphen.

Cheers and happy new year,

Hello Matthew,

Thanks for the report. Where are you seeing that wrap? On a Motor Fader Wing, or a cue list, or somewhere else?

I just tried putting that label on a Sub on a fader wing, and it only shows "Living Ro" so you are somewhat limited on that hardware, for instance....

Okay, sure enough.

You may want to see what the Tab setting "Maximize Button Size" does for you, but it's still a matter of chance how the label gets wrapped.

I've written up SCR 39866 for this behavior.

Thanks Matt, I'm already cramming as many tiles onto the screen as I can get away with so resizing them isn't feasible. I'm very strongly considering updating to 2.5 mid-show just for the ability to open up screen real estate by condensing some of my direct selects into custom windows, but the word wrap issue will wreak havoc on label legibility.
