I am trying to make a basic text editor (For a School Project if you are wondering) and I want to make it work with different code. The problem is that I cant get TextView to go on forever horizontally. Similar to Notepad++. I have set it to have the ability scroll horizontally, but I cannot seem to make the text keep going on one line. This is for a Mac OS X application and I am using Xcode 5. Also, on a side note, if you by chance know how to number the rows, I would greatly appreciate that as well. Thank you!

Menu option: Xcode->Preferences
From there go to the "Text Editing" tab and check the box for "Line numbers" then in the Indentation subtab uncheck the box for "line wrapping"

I am actually new to this... I am sorry. – doglover129 Oct 30 '13 at 03:23

Also, that is not what I meant. I want the textview field within the app to show that. Not the text editor in xcode. – doglover129 Oct 30 '13 at 03:25

there should be a similar checkbox for the TextView object settings. – Brad Allred Oct 30 '13 at 03:27
