DMEEx XML how to not delete spaces in atom/node

[aleksi]

Hi everyone,

Currently facing an issue when I try to add constant spaces on a node in the XML.

My requirement is to apply 5 spaces to the output. I have debugged program SAPFPAYM and saw that the spaces were being applied to the fields.
But when i try to print in F110 the added spaces are removed.

I have also tried replacing the spaces with Alt+255 but when checked on notepad++ it shows this symbol:

Output: 

expected: 

Thanks in advance

It's how works the XML viewer: it displays one character instead of several characters.

But the XML contains several characters (you'll see them if you display via "View as Source").

Hi Sandra,

Yes, i have also check on Notepad++ that it doesnt show the spaces i've implemented. However what i did notice while debugging is that when the atom has a specified length, it will run through a series of code that will condense the field. I set the length to 0 and the spaces have appeared.
