Setting Right Side Margin
-
I have just loaded version 8.5.8 and the one thing I can’t figure out is how to correct the alignment of type on a page so that sentences do not run on and on all the way to where it is necessary to right scroll to follow them. I would have thought it would be easy enough to set new tabs in Margins/Border/Edge under Settings/Preferences but I can’t make any progress. Can someone please suggest how to set the right side margin of a page so as to see everything lined up without the need to scroll across to the right? Hopefully the explanation of my issue was clear.

@Bill-Miller You probably want, from the main menu bar, View | Word wrap — it’s a toggle (click to check if unchecked, click to uncheck if checked).
This doesn’t affect the contents of the file, just the way it is displayed.

From the menu:
View => Word wrap
Otherwise, what you are asking is not really possible in a text editor. Try a word processor instead.
Cheers.
