Package: konqueror
Version: 2.2alpha2 (using KDE 2.2.0 alpha2)
Severity: normal
Installed from:    Debian Package 4:2.2-cvs20010602-1 (testing/unstable)
Compiler:          gcc version 2.95.4 20010604 (Debian prerelease)
OS:                Linux (i586) release 2.4.5-w4l-jb
OS/Compiler notes: 

Hi gurus,

I'm using the 2001-06-02 alpha2 code so things might have changed already. If so, shame on me for not waiting about 20 hours (on my machine) for a recompile before filing this report. ;)

When Konqueror displays directory contents in icon mode with the description centered below the icon, (default I think), it cuts off between words buts STILL adds a newline after the respective word. So that I sometimes have things like

America
n
Beauty

as a file description (note the "n" on its own line). This is especially annoying since there apparently is no way to fix the font size seperately for file view, it already is on 'small' and it's still 12pt (estimate) here, OR alteranatively to make Konqueror display icons with more space left and right (NOT below and above).

I'm using TTF fonts (Verdana to be exact) but not via the freetype engine (too slow here).

This has been happening since the first 2.0 release as far as I can remember - but not with every font. (Helvetica, IIRC, didn't split single characters from words).

I'd appreciate if you could have a look into this. Thanks! ;)
