VS Code line break or wrap

Question

When I write code in Visual Studio Code, and the line gets long, It doesn't break. It goes past the edge of the screen and that is rather annoying. What I want is for the line to break and then go on below, I believe this is called wrap or breaking I'm not sure. I use a split screen on my computer so only one half is my code editor and the other half is my project so I can see as I update it. Any help?

Answer 1

There's a setting for that called editor.wordWrap .

You can search the settings for "wrap" and set some additional customization to how you want VSCode to behave when wrapping text.

Answer 2

Ctrl+Shift+P to open command palette and type wrap there. You will easily find the option and also its hotkey - Alt+Z .
