Unicode character to allow blank rows in forms

In the spirit of sharing, I thought I'd let you all in on the Arial Unicode Right-To-Left Mark character that can be used in forms to add blank row between Help Text and the form value.
As per the image below:
- begin by selecting and copying the U+200F character from the Arial set in the Windows Character Map application.
- Now within your form, enter the Help Text as you normally would, then with the cursor on at the end of the text, press Shift + Enter to force a carriage return and paste (Crtl + V) the Unicode character you copied earlier.
This creates a much nicer visual as the value(s) are no longer jammed right up against the Help Text.

This is great tip.
Likely a one off, but I remember about this is that the LEFT and RIGHT functions still work as if you're using left-to-right text. Although we allow unicode character entry in this way, our formulas don't officially support right-to-left text.
Just one thing to keep in mind!

Thanks Shaine.
