I want "新北市" connected together without being broken but didn't work

In English mode (LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 libreoffice) the non-breaking features can work.  However in Chinese mode (LC_ALL=zh_TW.UTF-8 libreoffice) it doesn't.  I insert non-breaking space or no-width no break between two Chinese characters and it still broke into new lines (not the whole words going into new lines) when wrapping.

It may be inherited from OOo.  My earliest tested version is 4.0.0.3.

Hi Frankin Weng,
Is this issue still reproducible in master?

no-width no break didn't work

Affect more:  The no-width no break didn't work between alphanumeric (western) characters in a mixed (both Western and Asian texts) paragraph.  The language of western texts was set to English(US).

Still not work in Chinese

Version: 7.1.3.2 / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 47f78053abe362b9384784d31a6e56f8511eb1c1
CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 5.10; UI render: default; VCL: kf5
Locale: zh-TW (zh_TW.UTF-8); UI: zh-TW
Calc: threaded

For Chinese characters non-break space does not work.  I want the three words "新北市" connected together without being broken into two lines.

But for a long numbers like another attachment shows it works now - the number will be connected together and put into the next line.

Franklin, can you test with master branch?

You can get build from https://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/master/ to reproduce.
