Cursor on long lines

[amyren]

Is it possible have an option to disable the automatic sideways line scrolling when typing on long lines?
It can be a bit annoying at times when the cursor always stays at the left edge of the window when typing so you cant see what you just typed.

Probably not easily possible. Keep in mind that the Windows IDE imposes a behaviour onto Microsoft's RichEdit control that it wasn't really made for. Can't you manually set the cursor to somewhere away from the left edge of the window to avoid that problem?

I can put the cursor where I want, by clicking further right on the particular line or I can use the left and right keys to move the cursor. But the moment I start type, the text is scolled left automaticly so my cursor will be at the left edge.

This happens on all lines that are longer than the IDE window. The only place on these lines you can type without the cursor being moved to the left is when you are close to the end of the line so the automatic scolling have stopped.

Is this a windows 10/11 issue?
I have windows 7 with Hollywood 8 in a virtual machine, and there it does not scroll like that.

Maybe it's a Windows 11 issue? Haven't tried on that yet...
