Show Abbreviations is checked. The other abbreviations appear, but not for 'Abb. Name'.

I'm trying to put a separator in front of 'Abb. Name', but HEM doesn't seem to recognize anything in that field box.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

We don't have an abbreviation for the name. The stats can look like any other stat, but I think it is hard to confuse a name with a stat.

What if your name is "1.60" ?
or even worse "VP$IP 86" ?

only kidding... :)

Thanks for the reply Mike.

Obviously, I'm not confusing 'name' stat with number stats.
I simply want to add a separator between some number stats and a 'name' stat.

In my HUD configuration, I like to use separators between my stat groups. I have number stats directly to the left of the 'name' stat. So, without a separator they're crowded together. I'll try to just add some spaces, but without prefix capability I'm assuming it won't work.

In HEM, 'Abbreviation' is really any prefixes, which includes separators. So, I guess my thinking was that HEM would give all stats (including the 'name' stat) the ability to have a prefix, hence a separator. Also, it addresses any issues or confusion if 'name' begins with or includes numbers.

Anyway, this isn't a big deal, so I'm moving on...
