When I write code in Visual Studio Code, and the line gets long, It doesn't break. It goes past the edge of the screen and that is rather annoying. What I want is for the line to break and then go on below, I believe this is called wrap or breaking I'm not sure. I use a split screen on my puter so only one half is my code editor and the other half is my project so I can see as I update it. Any help?

• Try toggling word wrap with the shortcut of "Alt + Z". This would wrap a line if it goes off the screen – AnsonH Commented Jun 24, 2021 at 9:09

Command

Ctrl+Shift+P to open mand palette and type wrap there.

Windows

Alt+Z

Mac

⌥+Z

There's a setting for that called editor.wordWrap.

You can search the settings for "wrap" and set some additional customization to how you want VSCode to behave when wrapping text.
