Emdash?
by ruwth Author IconMail Icon
I have been taught that when using an endash or an emdash there should not be a space before or after the symbol. In the new editor, it is automatically putting a space after the emdash.

It just means I have to delete the space before continuing my writing.

A very minor thing but just giving feedback.
