Arc Lables not spacing degree symbol enough

I am in C3D 2012 and using Romans.shx for my text.  When labeling an Arc, the degree symbol comes out too close to the following text/number.  Is there any way to adjust the spacing on curved text.  On a straight line it looks fine.

Just add a space in your label.  You may have to have two labels, one for tangents and one for curves.

Nice idea, but the bearing is one field, DD.MM.SS.  There is no way I know of to insert a space into the field.  I tried using the "spaced" option, but that spaces all of the elements to far.  The only other way I can think of is a series of expressions for the Degrees, Minutes and Seconds as individual entries.  I may give that a try.

Dave, no need for an expression. The Label Style Angle property has an Output modifier so you can split it into the separate components DD MM SS:

Excellent.  Thank you, once again.  I tried a regular spce, but it was too big.  I then tried the non-breaking-space and it worked just right.  I didn't know that modifier was there.

 

Thanks,

Dave
