I'm using the IEEEtrans document class and sometimes the figure caption
Fig. n: label
looks like
Fig. n: label
where the space after the “Fig.” is stretched.
How do I make the next space after “Fig.
” fixed width?
I have tried the commands \enspace
and \kern 0.33em
which I found on this link What's the easiest way of putting a fixed-width space? but neither works.
I cannot use the \spaceskip
command as
proposed here Fixed-width interword space
because I don't know where to turn it off.
I need to fix the width of the next space but
not all spaces in the environment.
Thank you for your time.

The
IEEEtran
class hasYou can solve your problem by saying, before
\begin{document}
,so the space after
\figurename
will not be influenced by the space factor of the period and be fixed because it appears in a box.
