Red line in editor

Hi there :slight_smile:
I’m currently trying out Glider and it just blows my mind how epic it is :smiley:

I have one “issue” in the editor: I have a red vertical line that has no apparent functionality and I can’t remove it. Its only in the “text editor” window and it goes as far down as the source code is.

Can anybody help me and explain what it is used for and how I can remove it? [import]uid: 128747 topic_id: 34489 reply_id: 334489[/import]

Hello go4,

Thanks for your interest! The red line is called the “text limit line” it is there to help you follow the age old coding conventions of 80 characters per line. See this interesting article as to why it was set to 80 (http://programmers.stackexchange.com/questions/148677/why-is-80-characters-the-standard-limit-for-code-width)

Among other things, this makes your code easier to read with less scrolling and also makes it easier to print. If these are not important to you you can easily remove it, here is how:

Awesome, thank you for the detailed explanation!

One more thing: When I purchase a license can I use it on my PC and notebook (2 licences for 1, the same with Corona?). [import]uid: 128747 topic_id: 34489 reply_id: 137132[/import]

Hello go4,

Yes, as long as it is just you using it you can install it on as many computers as you like.
