Afaik, there is no builtin configurable parameter to achieve this.
Just some thoughts, do you know the ctrl+right/left behavior?
If this doesn’t suite you another possible solution might be to
create two python scripts and assign two shortcuts.
One would jump an amount of chars to the right and the other
to the left.
I assume
editor.positionFromLine (to get the line start position)
editor.getLineEndPosition (as name says …)
editor.lineFromPosition (…)
editor.getCurrentPos (…)
editor.gotoPos (…)
should do the trick.
If you need help creating the scripts - let us know.

Cheers
Claudia

I run in the Non-Wrap mode. When you move the cursor to the right edge minus one character, the next cursor movement to the right scrolls the display to the left by three characters. I would like to be able to change this amount to something like 30 characters.

@Stefan-Zimberoff

not clear for me what you try to achieve, could you clarify it?
