Helle there,

Could anybody help me to find the setting where I can set word wrapping
for the editor.
I want to see all the code without scrolling left or right.
Any idea where this setting is hidden?

Any help appreciated.
John

There is no setting for as-you-type word wrapping. The code formatter
settings can be set with a maximum line length so that long lines will
be wrapped whenever you format the code (Preferences > Java > Code Style

on-the-fly.
In general I would not want a code editor to wrap the display because
code does not generally wrap very well like prose.

Hope this helps,
Eric
