My text should be this:

I'm getting this:

Can this be prevented?

Thanks!

There are no updates - it was in the initial post. Nevertheless, here:

Does using '\nw' at the start of the choice work? It would temporarily disable word wrap.

Nope, it has to be at the start of the dialogue box to work, and then it makes the wrapping all kooky on the dialogue. Didn't even solve the issue on the choices.

What if you use \nw just after the dialogue?

That should work.. (unless i'm misunderstanding how the message codes work )

Then it has the same effect as before, but the dialogue is still wrapped, as the effect only applies after the \ . The choices are still weird.

EDIT: Ok, I tried it in front of the choice - that seemed to fix it. There's something a bit weird in the coding where it auto-minimizes the choice box if text in it is past a certain length, I think. In order to make the space left by \nw less noticable, I also had to put a space in front of the other choices too. So in theory, this is an ok stopgap measure, but the gap is noticable if you pay attention.

Might be one worth looking into for future reference though?

Hmm ... ideally you don't want the textwrap in any choice, right? Just in the regular text boxes, where people talk ...
Is there a coding option to check if the text being handled is in a choice-field?
