Title: Slickedit inserting lines while typing/editing - PLEASE STOP
Post by: d4_gsurge on February 13, 2014, 04:59:13 PM: I cannot make a line more than 80 characters long in Slickedit. Slickedit keeps inserting lines (actual carriage returns, not line wrapping).
Example: When typing:
Quote
 <img alt="This is some text to make the line more than 80 chars so it will wrap around" /> 

When I get to 81 characters, it inserts a line break and indent after the <img , like so:
Quote
 <img
alt="This is some text to make the line more than 80 chars so it will wrap around." /> 

I don't want that line break. If I place the cursor after the <img and hit backspace, it only moves the line break:
Quote
 <img alt="This is some text to make the line more than 80 chars so it will
wrap around." /> 

I can go back and forth trying to delete it but to no avail. I cannot make a line more than 80 characters long.
This is unbelievably frustrating. I don't need to tell you that this makes me want to kill my computer as well as everything that has ever lived.

Oh my dear sweet Lord Jesus Christ.
Thank you.
I realized while following your advice that there's also a "Follow the style of" option on each separate tag, and all I had to do was update those several alternate defaults.
