General ⇒ Help with hyphenation

[ganda97]

Hello,

I need to stop one instance of one word from hyphenating. Any ideas? The word "radio" in one of my captions is hyphenating in the "list of figures" and it is not allowed by my department. The word is being hyphenated as "ra-dio". I would prefer to just "fix" this one instance, with no hyphenation, since the rest of the formatting is ok and don't want to mess with it. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Ariel

A quick fix: use

Code: Select all

\mbox{radio}

The use of \mbox prevents hyphenation (and probably causes an overfull \hbox).
