Looking for Preference: Prevent Scrollbar possible ?

[Wastle Smith]

Let me first define: horizontal scrolling => left and right scrolling ; vertical scrolling => up and down scrolling.

With that I want to prevent horizontal scrolling (e.g. due to an over-size. long line ) . Instead I want that the window is resized. great enough to prevent that type of scrolling ( which often then hides the beginning of the lines).

Is there a preference available to setup BBEdit to have this behavior ?

Hey Wastle,

No, there is no such setting – but some enterprising fellow wrote an AppleScript to handle that:

Thanks Chris, for me it is enough to know, that I have not overlooked a setup. The AppleScript is very nice, but I don't want to over-complicate my setup with BBEdit
