How do you insert a thin non-breaking space when using memoQ ?

The intent is to separate a number from the percentage symbol , like 15 %,
inserting a thin space manually

You can insert it using the Insert Symbol command from the Edit ribbon (using the hexadecimal code 202F to find the symbol), but I learned a new and better way recently - a customized shortcut.
Go to memoQ > Options > Keyboard shortcuts. Create a customized settings file (by duplicating the default file).
Edit the file: Edit > Special characters > 202F > Assign shortcut [Ctrl+F11 or similar] > Save.
