QA Checkers 3.0 : How do I setup punctuation to ACCEPT Non-breaking space before colon (:)

Claude Brindamour

Everytime I'm working on a translation from ENG to FR_canadian, I get a warning or an error regarding SPACE before colon. As you probably know, the non-breaking space is a mandatory rule to respect when writing in French. Whatever I click or unclick in these settings, I still receive it. I was thinking this specified line/box "Verification for French (spaces are voluntary) was about that. Is there a way to set this to get the NBSP accepted before the colon? Thanks for any advice or workaround solving this!
Trados Studio 2024 (v. 18.0.1.2259)

    The problem has not been solved and looks very specific to French Canadian punctuation. In my case, Project Settings does not offer any setting about this. I found the above settings in File-Options-Verifications-QA Checkers 3.0-punctuation. The problem is that I don't understand this punctuation setting : Search involuntary spaces. Whatever I choose (including colon, or not, ticking or unticking boxes like "verification for French (spaces are voluntary)", it does not work. Is that something that programers of the FR version have forget to set? I don't know. But it is VERY ANNOYING. Disappointed
