Where?               MF>Yes .....               MF>Config -> Options -> Editor -> Right Margin               MF>Whatever value you put in there determines the maximum number of        MF>characters per line(default=74).              That's for OXP.              This thread was about Winpoint. We were discussing Winpoint's default        full-screen effect of the editor. Then you mentioned the line length can        be modified. I assumed we were still on a Winpoint trajectory. :)                      AA>> Can't we pretty much just resize the window to whatever we want?              (I was still talking about Winpoint above.)               MF>AhBut :)        MF>That adjusts the window size, it does nothing for the actual line length.        MF>Assuming the right margin is set to 74 in OpenXP and the window width is        MF>set to 70, the line length will still be 74 because the text will wrap at        MF>the window edge(column 70), IYSWIM :)              (..but you are talking about OXP.) LOL              WRT OXP, yes... I like the many visual adjustments that can be made with        it.                                    ../|ug              --- OpenXP 5.0.43        * Origin: ----------Do Not Fold, Spindle or Mutilate.---------- (2:221/1.58)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 90/1 120/340 601 154/10 203/0 221/1 6 360 226/30 227/114       SEEN-BY: 229/101 426 1014 240/5832 249/206 317 400 280/464 5003 288/100       SEEN-BY: 292/854 8125 310/31 317/3 322/757 342/200 396/45 423/81 120       SEEN-BY: 712/848 770/1 2452/250       PATH: 221/1 280/464 229/426           |
