[SOLVED]vim word wrap

Is it possible to set vim up to prevent the word wrap from splitting words. Like in more modern applications, the word wrap will try to move large words at the end of the screen to a new line if they are too big. Also, is this behavior possible in less?

Here's what I have to control line breaks:
set linebreak " Wrap breaks lines at word boundaries.
set nolist " Control TAB and EOL display
set textwidth=0 " Disable auto line breaks.
set wrapmargin=0 " Stop auto insertion of EOL.
set showbreak=>>\ \ " Indicate wrapped lines.

  • [Solved]Conky and word wrapping - Is there a way?

    So I have a very limited area to work with, something like 176x360 (+/- a few pixels), and I want the ability to show an RSS feed. Well, the feed works of course, but due to the limited width, I'm in great need of word wrapping, and for that problem I have found no solution and going on for 2-3 hours straight, my head hurts
    Anyway, here's my .conkyrc, not that it's needed of course.

    I know this looks confusing and probably is full of critical error, but that simple because I'm a conky noob. I basically just downloaded a profile I liked and completely changed it over the course of a few hours.
    Anyway, I'm rambling again, but if you've got any idea's, please do let me know.
    Best regards.

    Okay, so I've found sort of a solution to part of the problem, so what I have so far look like this:
    wget -quiet -O - archlinux.org/feeds/news/ | fmt -w 25 -g 25
    It works as long as there are no words longer than 25 character, which I should think is rare, even including package names and such.
    However there's still the issue parsing the xml so I get only what I want:
    <item><title>$content</title><link>
    This may be solved using some sort of terminal rss parser, but I would rather prefer not to.
    Then there's the issue with reloading.
    My current conky is set to reload every second, but of course one can't just pull the feed every second and I'm not convinced that conky has any built in solution for that problem. Of course I can always start a cronjob and save it all to a file, but portability would be nice.
    anyway, I'll return later.

  • [SOLVED] How to add Word-Wrapping to a QPushButton

    I'm working on a Qt project and I have a QPushButton on which I'd like to allow word wrapping:
    I know I can change it to a QLabel, but due to the specific purpose of the application, it needs to be clickable (so I think that means it must be a QPushButton). I've searched around online a bit and the only solution I've been able to find is "inheriting." However, I can't seem to figure out how to do it. Can anyone help? Thanks!
    Last edited by tony5429 (2009-08-22 19:20:38)

    I don't think that is possible, as it is against QPushButton's intended design.
    However, you could easily derive a class from QLabel and overload the
    virtual void QWidget::keyPressEvent ( QKeyEvent * event )
    function or install an event filer (http://doc.trolltech.com/4.5/eventsandfilters.html)
    on a "plain" QLabel to do the exactly same.

  • JEdtiorPane/HTMLEditorKit word wrapping problems

    Hi,
    I have a JFrame component that has a splitPane, on the left side is a JTree and the right side has a JEditorPane that has it's content updated with HTML using a method to generate the HTML via the setText() method . (no url, and no html file)
    The searching I did indicates that word wrapping is the default behavior, and I saw a lot of posts from people trying to get rid of the word wrapping, but it isn't wrapping at all for me. I get the horizontal scroll bar.
    I had the same problem using a JTextPane...anyone know how to wrap text?
    here's the relevant code:
    descriptionPanel = new JPanel(new BorderLayout());
              descriptionEditorPane = new JEditorPane();
              HTMLEditorKit htmlEditorKit = new HTMLEditorKit();
              descriptionEditorPane.setEditorKit(htmlEditorKit);
              descriptionEditorPane.setSize(new Dimension(610,800));
              descriptionEditorPane.setBorder(BorderFactory.createEmptyBorder(10,10,10,10));
              descriptionPanel.add(descriptionEditorPane);

    Did you place the components into scroll panes and then put those into the split pane?
    If so, then I guess that calling setHorizontalScrollBarPolicy(ScrollPaneConstants.HORIZONTAL_SCROLLBAR_NEVER) on the editor pane's scroll pane might solve your problem.

  • Modifiers in Collection List Renderer  to display word wrapping

    Hello
    Is it possible to display the folder/files description in word wrap mode?
    I set the parameter "rndVisibleProperties" with the following value: rnd:image(alignLeft/contentLink/alignBaseline), rnd:displayname(contentLink/[2;1])+rnd:action, rnd:description(alignLeft/maxChars=7).
    Thereby the folder/file description is displayed normally in no word wrap mode.
    I tryed also "rnd:description(alignLeft/wrapping/maxChars=7)" but it doesn't work.
    Is there a valid modifier or an other solution to solve my problem?
    Thanks for answers
    Regards Michael

    Hi Brijesh
    Thank you very much. Now my porblem is solved.
    When I combine the modifiers "width" and "maxChars" so now it is possible to format a nice page.   --> see below
    rnd:image(alignLeft/contentLink/alignBaseline), rnd:displayname(contentLink/[2;1]/width=40/maxChars=20)+rnd:action, rnd:description(alignLeft/[3;1]/width=40/maxChars=20)

  • Webforms - Wrap Text/Word Wrap for Column Headings

    I have some member aliases that are set as my webform's column headings, but they are fairly long. Setting the column width to a custom value that fits most of the text in the heading makes the form very wide and ugly to work with. I don't see any option to Wrap Text or use Word Wrap in the column headings. Is there any way to do this?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    I am not aware of any option which allows you to wrap the text, it may be possible customizing the [CSS |http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10530_01/doc/epm.931/html_hp_admin/ch12s03.html] though to be honest I am not even sure about that and even if it was possible it would apply to all apps.

  • How to word wrap within text field

    I've created a form with a text field but when filling the form out, the words don't word wrap, but merely go in a single line across the text box field.

    I have set my text fields to multi line and the text wraps but it only starts about halfway down the text box.  Please help, this is getting frustrating...

  • How can I turn off word wrap in the View Source output?

    I'm trying to extract HTML from Word and one way to do that is to save the Word file as a .htm file and then View Source in a browser and copy that. But the words are wrapped in the View Source file. I want each paragraph to be all on one line. Is there a setting for the View Source feature that will turn off word wrap?
    Once I have that done and copied into a plain text editor, I will use Search>Replace to get rid of all the stuff Word puts there and just end up with the simple paragraph tags at the end of each paragraph, all on one line.

    You can disable wrapping and syntax highlighting in the View menu in the Edit > View Source window.

  • Looking for a word processor without word wrap, text edit doesn't cut it

    I'm looking for a word processor without word wrap, text edit doesn't work. In text edit, it automatically scoots my text over to the next line but I just want it to keep going with a horizontal scrollbar. Is there a text editor I can download from the app store or can I get textedit to work somehow where it uses a horizontal scroll bar instead of entering text to the next line?

    Hi,
    thought TextWrangler can do it.
    But it seems that the 'no word-wrap' "feature" isn't that much wanted anymore.
    Maybe one of these http://www.macupdate.com/find/mac/text%20editor can do it.

  • Read Only TextAreas with Carriage Return, Line Breaks and Word Wrapping

    Hi all,
    I know there are a few posts around this subject but I cannot find the answer to the exact problem I have.
    I have a page that has a 'TextArea with Character Counter' (4000 Chars) that is conditionally read only based on the users credentials (using the 'Read Only' attributes of the TextArea item).
    When the field is editable (not Read Only) everything works fine but when I make the field Read Only I start to have problems:
    The first problem is that the Carriage Return and Line Breaks are ignored and the text becomes one continuos block. I have managed to fix this by adding pre and post element text of pre and /pre tags. This has made the Carriage Return and Line Breaks word nicely and dispaly correctly.
    However, it has introduced a second problem. Long lines, with no Carriage Returns or Line Breaks, now extend to the far right of the page with no word wrapping, making my page potentially 4000+ characters wide.
    How can I get the field to be display only, with recognised Carriage Returns and Line Breaks, and Word Wrapping inside a fixed width of, say, 150 characters?
    Many thanks,
    Martin

    Hi,
    Just a cut and paste of yours with the field name changed:
    htp.p('<script>');
    htp.p('$x("P3_COMMENTS").readonly=true;');
    htp.p('</script>');I also have the following in the page HTML Header, could they be conflicting?

    function setReleaseToProd(wpTypeCode){
       //setReleaseToProd($v(this))
      var get = new htmldb_Get(null,$v('pFlowId'),'APPLICATION_PROCESS=set_release_to_prod',0);
      get.addParam('x01',wpTypeCode);
      gReturn = get.get();
      if(gReturn) {
         $s('P3_RELEASE_TO_PROD',gReturn);
      get = null;
    </script>I am a long way from knowing much about Javascript (this page code was written by someone else) so all help is much appreciated.

  • Word Wrap with a Vertical Grid

    I've got a vertical grid with my headers in the left column and descriptive text in the column immediately to the right.  I'd like to have the descriptive text word wrap but checking the word wrap box on the layout tab doesn't seem to have any effect.
    Any ideas?  I'm using 11.5 SP3

    I'm not sure if it will work with the iGrid in a vertical orientation, but have you tried setting the RowHeight to something like 20 or 30 instead of the default of 0?  This setting will auto adjust the grid lines based upon the font-size, but you may need to force it to a certain height in order for the wrapping to work.

  • How to make items in a list word wrap as needed and be variable heights

    I am trying to build a custom itemrenderer for the List control.  The items in the list are variable lengths of text, some of the text items will have different colors determined at runtime base on some criteria (this works fine now with my custom itemrenderer).  What I need is for the items to word wrap, and therefore for the list to display items of varying heights.  Is this possible to do?  All my attempts seem to have failed.  If I can't do this with an item renderer any suggestions about how to do this?  Thanks very much in advance to any of you gurus who are able to help me.

    Trick here is not to specify any height for the renderer so that Flex will determine the height according to the content. Also set the variableRowHeight="true"
    Here is a simple example
    <mx:ArrayCollection id="dp">
            <mx:Array>
                <mx:Object label="some very long text"/>
                <mx:Object label="some very loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong text"/>
                <mx:Object label="some very loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong text"/>
                <mx:Object label="some very looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong text"/>
                <mx:Object label="some very long text"/>
            </mx:Array>
        </mx:ArrayCollection>
        <mx:List dataProvider="{dp}" variableRowHeight="true">
            <mx:itemRenderer>
                <mx:Component>
                    <mx:Canvas width="100%">
                        <mx:Text width="100%" text="{data.label}"/>
                    </mx:Canvas>
                </mx:Component>
            </mx:itemRenderer>

  • Force word wrap in JTextPane (using HTMLEditorKit)

    Hi!
    I have a JTextPane on a JScrollPane inside a JPanel. My text pane is using HTMLEditorKit.
    I set the scrolling policies of my JScrollPane to: JScrollPane.VERTICAL_SCROLLBAR_AS_NEEDED & JScrollPane.HORIZONTAL_SCROLLBAR_NEVER.
    I did not find in JTextPane�s API any relevant property I can control word-wrapping with (similar to JTextArea�s setLineWrap) and I have tried a few things to force word-wrapping but nothing worked...
    What happens is my text is NOT being wrapped (even though there is no horizontal scrolling) and typed characters (it is an enabled editable text componenet) are being added to the same long line�
    I�d like to force word-wrapping (always) using the vertical scroll bar whenever the texts extends for more then one (wrapped) line.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!!

    Your suggestion of using the example only holds if it fits the requirements of the featureDid your questions state anywhere what your requirement was?
    You first questions said you had a problem, so I gave you a solution
    You next posting stated what your where currently doing, but it didn't say it was a requirement to do it that way. So again I suggested you change your code to match the working example.
    Finally on your third posting you state you have some server related issues causing the requirement which I did not know about in my first two postings.
    State your problem and special requirments up front so we don't waste time quessing.
    I've used code like this and it wraps fine:
    JTextPane textPane = new JTextPane();
    textPane.setContentType( "text/html" );
    HTMLEditorKit editorKit = (HTMLEditorKit)textPane.getEditorKit();
    HTMLDocument doc = (HTMLDocument)textPane.getDocument();
    textPane.setText( "<html><body>some long text ...</body></html>" );
    JScrollPane scrollPane = new JScrollPane( textPane );If you need further help then you need to create a [url http://homepage1.nifty.com/algafield/sscce.html]Short, Self Contained, Compilable and Executable, Example Program (SSCCE) that demonstrates the incorrect behaviour, because I can't guess exactly what you are doing based on the information provided.
