Identify invisble characters with tooltip/description
burnuser opened this issue · comments
Is your enhancement related to a problem? Please describe.
Invisible characters like "no-break space" (U+00A0) can not be identified in the shown character map as they were all represented by the same white space.
Describe the solution you'd like
Add a tooltip to (invisible) characters to reveal their description (and maybe also Unicode number) on mouseover.
Designs
Describe alternatives you've considered
Add also keyboard shortcuts for quick selection.
AND/OR
Use special icons for invisible characters (maybe in a special colour)
AND/OR
use a designated area in Insert special characters UI to show a description of the selected character (like in good old TinyMCE)
Additional context
The search function will work, but you have to know and enter the exact name of an invisible character each time you need it. (Not a really good working solution.)

Confirmed with @mehulkaklotar that #104 resolves this.
