Though they're all correct in one sense, there is no intentionally built method to handle this use case, it would require a hack of some sort. I had to agree with Richard Simões above, none of these answers actually provided a real solution. TL DR: You now have TWO working solutions for the price of one! The primary different between the two is my solution uses characters that will remain hidden if copy/pasted to a simple text-editor, whereas the soft-hyphen solution in my testing converts to a standard looking hyphen in common simple text-editors. HOWEVER, as far as usability is concerned leclercdumombasin's answer is elegant in that you can simply copy and paste the soft-hyphen and tag any words you want to remain unformatted with only a single hidden character. Personally I find it's always easiest and more compatible to use an ASCII range solution as opposed to tempting fate with a Unicode solution like in leclercdumombasin's answer. Or use any hex to ascii converter (ie: ASCII to Hex) to convert this: 2a 0c 68 61 78 0c 2a Solution: Copy the below fixed text to Slack and Edit: There is once again *no* spoon
Not to fear, there is a simple Fix!įIX: Instead of using a Vertical Tab (hex character 0x0B), NOW use a Form Feed character (hex character 0x0C)! It seems Google has updated the Chrome web browser controls (and possibly others) to show placeholders for many common ASCII control characters, INCLUDING the Vertical Tab character! This change has caused my original Solution below to break, now showing "unknown character" squares or in some cases whitespace breaks, where before it was non-breaking in most use cases (notably Slack!).
