Description BDF 2021-04-09 22:46:58 UTC
Description:
When the "Before" and/or "After" option is used, the space will be replaced by characters. This results in an incorrect looking list style.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add a bunch of endnotes (>10)
2. Open the endnote menu (hover over the endnote + right click) and add and character for "Before" and/or "After"

Actual Results:
The space of the numbers >=10 will lose their space and have an incorrect look to it. More characters will push the endnote text out even further.

Expected Results:
The space is not 'eaten' by the character, but the endnotes are moved along so that they all stay in one line and have at least one space between the endnote number and the endnote text


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
The attached image shows how the space is decreased when a new character is added

Adding more characters to 'Before' and 'After'

The space is replaced with the character you enter. Even the alignment is probably correct, the fact that there is no space between the number and the endnotetext does make it look like it's not
