Page margins like in a word processor?
-
Is it possible to add white margins (left and if possible also top) around the text? I’m using Notepad++ for taking notes and editing them, and it would be great to have a little (white) space around the notes. A top margin is easily done by adding a new line, but pre-configured margins (both left and top) on startup would be awsome. I hope someone can help me out!

Settings > Preferences > Print > Margin Setting
(note the units are in mm, so 12mm would be about a half-inch margin)

Thanks Peter. I actually meant the margins in the editor itself whilst writing.
I came up with this workaround: If I activate/show the line numbers margin (under Settings > Editing) and change its colour to white (Settings > Style Configurator > Global Styles > Line number margin > Foreground colour (white)), and finally choose a “blank” font on the same tab (Symbols), I get a completly white left margin.

Axiomatic Ones:
I would like a larger, just a little bit larger, margin after the ‘Line Number’ column. It takes a little too long (for me) to place the cursor at the very beginning of a line.

I know it’s been two years but just in case you haven’t found it yet:
Go to Preferences, select Editing and uncheck No edge in the section Border Width. Then set the width using the slider which is positioned to the left of the checkbox.

Regarding my previous post (which cannot be edited): This seems to only work for the right margin though and the slider doesn’t work at all…
