To fix the issue of text breaking when there is a space in the name within a rotated div in Webflow, you can follow these steps:

  1. Identify the element: Start by identifying the element that contains the text with the issue. This could be a heading, paragraph, or any other text element within a div.

  2. Apply a transform: Select the element in the Webflow Designer and apply a transform property to rotate the div. You can do this by going to the styles panel and adding a new style or modifying the existing one. Choose the desired rotation value, such as transform: rotate(90deg);.

  3. Set a fixed width: When text breaks within a rotated div, it's often because the width of the div is not sufficient to accommodate the entire text string. To fix this, set a fixed width for the div element using the width property in the styles panel. Make sure to give it enough width to avoid text wrapping or breaking.

  4. Disable word wrapping: By default, text within a div wraps automatically when it reaches the end of the container. To prevent this from happening, you can set the white-space property to nowrap. This will force the text to stay on a single line and prevent any breaking caused by spaces within the text.

  5. Adjust other styles as needed: Depending on the specific issue and design requirements, you may need to adjust other styles such as font size, line height, or padding. This is to ensure that the text fits properly and appears as intended within the rotated div.

By following these steps, you should be able to fix the issue of text breaking when there is a space in the name within a rotated div in Webflow. Remember to preview and test your changes across different screen sizes to ensure consistent behavior.

Note: If the issue persists, it may be due to a more complex layout or conflicting styles. In such cases, it could be beneficial to seek further assistance, such as posting on the Webflow forum or reaching out to Webflow support.
