When I select word wrap, all my text disappears. Then, when I toggle the word wrap option to not wrap, it shows the text again.
It is some kind of display issue.

This started after I was trying to toggle the word wrap and hit some wrong key.

This effectively makes word wrap useless.

How can I set Textpad to display the text when in word wrap mode?

Thanks

Anybody ?

Very large file?

Badly coded? (No insult! Could be someone elses...or Front Page ... insult)

I have seen this once in a very long time and it just went away.

Sometimes some strange displays at the ends of long files. Usually cured simply by scroling up and then back down.

Of course you can try uninstalling and re-installing.

I think mostly nobody is responding because nobody knows.

Check that the word break is set correctly.

This is set using the word break column, which can be set differently for each document class.
For example, to configure it to 65 for the Text class
(*.txt):

1) From the Configure menu, choose Preferences.
2) Click the "+" next to Document Classes.
3) Select "Text".
4) Check "Word wrap long lines" and "Save with hard breaks".
5) Check "Word wrap at column number", and type 65 in the box.
6) Click OK.

As you type, words will wrap with a soft break, which will be converted to a hard break when the document is saved, or for selected text, by using the Split Wrapped Lines command, on the Edit menu. You can join selected lines back together again, using the Reformat command.
