  • In Formula field that combine text and graphics the label in the list view of the object is longer than the field text. I would like to add preceeding spaces to center the field test.

You can use Unicode's 0xA0 (no-break space) character directly in a formula to provide spacing:

"Hello     World"

Renders as: "Hello     World"

You'll want to copy and paste this symbol directly from the example above, or from your favorite character map program.

    excellent! yep, and leave notes in the formula field description as otherwise the next poor admin may have no idea what you did :-)

Salesforce seems to strip out the blank spaces at the start and end of the string. Try using BR() function to add a line break at the begginning of the field
