I wanted to add some white space between the TOC text and the leader symbols in my TOC. Here is the default TOC when I don't use whitespace:
I tried the following Expression:
= Fields.group1 + " "
Here is the result - the TOC text of the first level was displaced as if the added whitespace is before the text:
The workaround I found is to add one LeaderSymbol at the end of the whitespace string:
= Fields.group1 + " ."
Still, it seems that there is whitespace trimming that is not correctly implemented for the TOC section.
