Flutter – TextField with TextAlign.right doesn´t show spaces

I have a TextField with TextAlign.right. If i write some text in it and press the space bar multiple times the spaces are not displayed, until i enter another "visible" character.

How to display the spaces without entering a "visible" character after?

    I found a solution to this problem. Hope it helps others. If the space get´s replaced with u00A0 it works like intended.

    onChanged: (value) {
              String newText = value.replaceAll(' ', 'u00A0');
              widget.textEditingController.value = widget.textEditingController.value.copyWith(
                text: newText,
              );
            }

    Just set the text direction to right-to-left:

    textAlign: TextAlign.right,
textDirection: TextDirection.rtl,

    And it will work.
