Is there a config I can set so that the jqt term will line wrap to window width like the editor? I couldn’t find it so thought to ask just in case. (I typically use jconsole on a macos terminal but started using jqt recently.)

Thanks
Pete

The term widget supports it but it has never been enabled.

I don't see a problem in enabling it, except that we would need to
ensure that line recall works properly.

Ok thanks. Is a "nice to have" but not necessary IMO.

A couple of questions. Is there a way to change the color of the text/background of the line numbers in the edit window?
Is there a font size change option for the edit window's tab labels?

Not requesting to be added if not available, just wonder if they exist and I just missed them.

Thanks.
Pete

I know those. I’m asking for the line numbers that show in the margin of the edit window after enabling them in the configure file.

Thanks

There are no commands that specifically target line numbers and tab
labels, but both use the proportional font which can be changed. You
can experiment by trying a large font, e.g.

wd 'sm profont "Noto Sans" 15'

This only changes the current session font. For a permanent change,
use Edit|Configure|Qt Ide.

The line number colors are Qt defaults.
