Php Storm : How can i automate breaking lines in PHPStorm 2.1 - ide

Question

How can i automate breaking lines (word wrap) in PHPStorm 2.1?

Answer 1

Automatic wrap example aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa‌aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa :
This expression has automatic wrap, because I did not press return.
As I understand you want Soft Wraps, when long line is wrapped on screen into multiple lines, but still remains as single line in file.
Soft Wraps
on per file basis
View | Active Editor | Use Soft Wraps
for all files by default
Settings/Preferences | Editor | General | Use soft wraps in editor
Right margin setting
There is also
Settings/Preferences | Editor | Code Style | General --> Wrap when typing reaches right margin
But that's different (it will make actual new line).
UPDATE: In current builds IDE can use separate value for right margin per different "language" -- as long as that language has an entry in Code Style settings.
Also keep in mind that any settings from .editorconfig files (if you have such files in your project and EditorConfig plugin is installed & enabled) will override the same from Code Style settings -- it's the nature of the plugin and not a bug (it meant to work this way).
Using EditorConfig support you can configure certain settings that otherwise may not be possible to do via Code Style (e.g. settings for languages/file types that have no separate Code Style entry).

Answer 2

Open Settings
Type "Use Soft Wraps" in search box
In keymap tab right click on "Use Soft Wraps" and add a custom shortcut
You will be able to toggle them with that shortcut

Answer 3

In PhpStorm 2019.1.3 You should add file type you want to make soft wrapping on it
go to Settings -> Editor -> General -> Soft-wrap files then add any types you want

Answer 4

For wrapping text/code line by deafault:
File -> Settings -> Editor -> General -> section "Soft Wraps" -> checkbox "Use soft wraps in editor"

Answer 5

In Webstorm 2020.3 i did not found any option for all files by default, but just change the pattern:
for ALL files:
Settings > Editor > General > Soft Warps >
Soft-wrap theses files: you can change value to:
*.*
(in the other words "ANY file name" and "ANY extension file")
for SOME FILES:
*.php; *.html
(Any files with exntension .php OR .html)

Answer 6

simple:
cmd+F8
You can find the list of shortcut by PhpStorm in menu Help -> Default Keymap Reference!

Answer 7

in phpstorm 2016:
Settings/Preferences | Editor | Code Style | General --> default option-> uncheck wrap on typing

Answer 8

To make it automatic
After applying this point:
Use Ctrl + Alt + S to open the settings menu
Select and click Editor
Choose Code Style
Change the default value of the Hard wrap value to 90
Go back to CodeStyle and choose any of the language you work with to make specific changes
5.1 I choose HTML and Select Other and i change the value of Hard wrap at 90 and wrap on typing to Yes
5.2 I choose JavaScript and Select Wrapping and Braces and change the Hard wrap at value to 90 and wrap on typing to Yes
Continue to do it with all other languages you work with
NB: other languages may be at a default values, change it if is not preferable to you
Apply and Ok to save the changes

Answer 9

Using phpstorm 2019.3.4 as well as new and older version :
Use Ctrl + Alt + S to open the settings menu
Select and click Editor
Choose Code Style
Change the default value of the Hard wrap value to 90
Apply and save changes
Press Ctrl + A to highlight and select all your codes in the text editor
Press Ctrl + Alt + L to format your code nicely
Or when using the default settings for Hard wrap at 180 , follow 6 and 7
