Hi,

I am facing the following issue. The left hand side of the line (that is
the words which are to the left side of :: ) is not breaking in the
following Description list

+ This is the big name of my thesis written in undergraduate * (/B.E.
> Thesis. Guide: Prof. x y x, the institute name/) :: Here is a description
> of the above heading spanning two lines.  here is a description of the
> above heading spanning two lines. here is a description of the above
> heading spanning two lines. here is a description of the above heading
> spanning two lines. here is a description of the above heading spanning two
> lines.




"This is the big name of my thesis written in undergraduate * (/B.E.
Thesis. Guide: Prof. x y x, the institute name/)"
The above line is not breaking to next line.

Help is appreciated.

Thakns.

Aloha Sanjib Sikder:

I think the exporter expects the description label to be on one line.  

If I change your input to this, all is well:

  - This is the big name of my thesis written in undergraduate ::
    (/B.E. Thesis. Guide: Prof. x y x, the institute name/) Here is
    a description of the above heading spanning two lines. here is a
    description of the above heading spanning two lines. here is a
    description of the above heading spanning two lines. here is a
    description of the above heading spanning two lines. here is a
    description of the above heading spanning two lines.

In my experience, LaTeX doesn't do a great job with long description
labels, so reworking your list to have shorter labels might be a better
way to go.

hth,
Tom

Please wait for one week before "pinging" the list for a reply.

Doing otherwise sends useless emails to the >1400 subscribers 
of the list.

Thanks!
