Double spaces visible in Data element details but not in Data element list

I noted the following difference in the “Data entry (Beta)” app: double spacings are visible in the Data element details but do not appear in the Data element list. Of course the double spacings make no sense but as we have to align our item descriptions with another application, we are obliged to keep them. I am just wondering whether this is a bug or by design. For example:

Data element list: single spacing between “e” and “2” (before “25 g”)

Data element detail: double spacing:

DHIS2 version: 2.41.3.1

Hi @George_McGuire. The white space collapsing is determined by the browser, but we can override the browser defaults and display all of the spaces. Would you like to open an issue for this?

IMO double spaces, trailing spaces are not really “desired” they slip into the system, generally unnoticed… it would be great to dhis2 auto trim them on data element edition (and other places)
