Phaser js Text wrap not working

[Adibas03]

Just realized that the text wrap function will not take effect if there are no spaces in the text.

while this works 

game.stage.backgroundColor = '#0072bc';

var style = { font: 'bold 20pt Arial', fill: 'white', align: 'left', wordWrap: true, wordWrapWidth: 150 };
	
var text = game.add.text(game.world.centerX, game.world.centerY, "phaser with a sprinkle of pixi dust", style);

 

this does not

game.stage.backgroundColor = '#0072bc';

var style = { font: 'bold 20pt Arial', fill: 'white', align: 'left', wordWrap: true, wordWrapWidth: 150 };
	
var text = game.add.text(game.world.centerX, game.world.centerY, "phaserwithasprinkleofpixidust", style);

 

Is this an issue or is this how it is supposed to be?

It's 'wordWrap'; the function looks at the string, and if it is too long, replaces a space with a new line. Because you only have one word, and therefore no spaces, it cannot find a place to insert a new line to keep the text within the wordWrapWidth
