When you insert a Date at the head of an item, Legend adds an extra space (\" \") before the Date.

It seems as though Legend Native assumes that the date/time is being added to the end of the line always, and added a leading space to the insert point, thinking that this will separate the date from the last text in the line.

As an additional bug, it appears that there is no way to insert a Date/Time anywhere in a line other than at the end when using the right-click popup menu because activating the popup menu selects the entire item/line. This causes the date/time to be added to the end of the line. The entire line should not auto-select when using the popup menu as you may be performing functions not specific to the entire line.

Currently, the only way to insert a Date/Time somewhere other than the end of the line is to use the Hot-Keys for Add Date (Command-Shift-D on the Mac by default). Then, the Date/Time is inserted at the current cursor location (as expected) without the entire line being selected (as expected).

Since the ability to add a Date/Time anywhere in text exists (via Hot-keys), it should also exists via right-click (which is currently cannot), and the automatic insertion of a space separator should automatically change based upon where it is inserted. For example:

Date<SPACE>Item Text Here

Item Text<SPACE>Date<SPACE>Here

Item Text Here<SPACE>Date

To take it one step further, auto-insertion of spaces when adding Date/Times could have a global setting for \"Enable/Disable\" for those that do not wish it to be automatic.
