Wrap text in output panel?

Hello,

I'm a new Animate user. I like to keep the output panel as a vertical band on the left side of the interface but output doesn't wrap by default.

How do I make the text in the output panel wrap so I don't have to right-scroll to read it?

Thank you,

Tim

    You can't. Back before the rewrite you could toggle word wrap in the output window, but they haven't reimplemented that yet. The best you can do for now is file a feature request.

    You could right-click in the panel and change Layout Orientation to Vertical. You would need to tilt your head to read it.

    There is no such option for the Output panel.

    You're probably right.

    i don't think you can unless you use jsfl but it's easier to just copy and paste the text into an app (or even another animate panel or filel) that's easier to read.
