Originally assigned to: @NghiaTranUIT on GitHub.

Proxyman version? (Ex. Proxyman 1.4.3)

1.17.1 (11710)

macOS Version? (Ex. mac 10.14)

10.15.3 (19D76)

Steps to reproduce

  1. View any scroll view with text (especially in request and response bottom layout)

Expected behavior

Be able to toggle word wrap off. Word wrap can make text be much harder to read.

That totally make sense. Let me research other apps to see how it handles this case, in favor of char wrap or word warp.

Btw, thank you for bringing it up 🎉

Just wondering, if we turn off word warp. So the long line doesn't go to the second lines, and it cuts off by the width of the view. How can you read it?

Can you show me the screenshot where you see that it's hard to read 🤔 @patrickbdev

It's obvious that Word Warp is better 🤚

Thanks for looking into this @NghiaTranUIT

The best example is a response body in something like XML or JSON.
When you're on small screens or wanting to tile your screens, it's handy to be able to retain the indented structure (even if you need to scroll).

Thank you for the screenshot. I understand your situation.
I see some apps, which offer this option in Preference to turn the Word Warp off. and It's possible to disable Word Warp in CodeMirror too.

I will add it 🙌
