How to show multiple apostrophes in LegendText?

[antoine.bergeron]

Hi,

I’m trying to use multiple apostrophes (straight single quotes) in a single Legend item. However, if I use 2, they both aren’t displayed. If I add a 3rd one, only this one appears, and a 4th one makes them both disappear again. I tried using html entities, but they are not converted for Legend text.

I tried on both v1.8 and 2.3, and I got the same result.

Sample page where that happens. The first Legend item of the second graph should read “Tout à fait d’accord/D’accord”.

Any idea how to correct that?

@antoine-bergeron,

You can achieve the above requirement by using escape sequences as shown in this JSFiddle.

Thanks!

I did try escaping the value in the LegendText itself, but that didn’t work. I didn’t know about using the curly brackets and using the value of another field.

By the way, any reason why escaping is not allowed in the LegendTest field itself?

Cheers!

@antoine-bergeron,

Thanks for sharing the use-case, we will reconsider this behavior in future versions.
