RH 2020 - Index markers from FrameMaker files have %20 sign, plus truncation issue

Here are screen captures.

In RoboHelp 2020:

In output (what the customer sees) in the Index tab. It happens in multiple output types.

Thanks for responding.

Users searching for topic content should not be affected by this. Please add a screenshot or two to show how this is affecting them or describe it in a bit more detail.

2019 and 2020 both use strict HTML5 and CSS3 whereas 2017 did not, hence you now encountering this. That is also why it will not be fixed. What matters is how you see it affecting users.

Yes, the FrameMaker index entries are fine in FrameMaker and its output. The %20 displays in the RoboHelp interface and in the RoboHelp output. I understand that HTML convention is to change spaces to %20, so I get that part. You cannot search and replace in RoboHelp on %20 to change it to a space. So still waiting for a fix. This was not an issue in RoboHelp 2017.

Thanks for responding.

Is the "%20" showing up in the RH project files or in your output (which is what?) As an experiment, you could try publishing directly out of FM and see if the same problem is exhibited in the FM output.
Slightly more worrisome is the mis-handling of the index marker sub-index entry. Peter may not realize that a FM index marker text of that format (e.g. Animals:Europe) should give you an index entry that looks like 
Animals
              Europe

(hope that survives posting in the web entry). Is this truncated effect in the RH index in the project or in the index produced in the output?

That is normal html code for a space. Where is this causing a problem?
