How do I reduce the width of my editor file in vscode so that I don't have to scroll to the right to reach the end of a paragraph

Question

It seems my lorem ipsum paragraphs in vscode end up as one long line causing me to have to scroll to the right rather than a paragraph of text appearing.

How do I reduce the width of the editor box so I don't have to scroll to the right when putting large amounts of text?

have a look at this [turn on word wrapping in vs code](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/31025502/how-can-i-switch-word-wrap-on-and-off-in-visual-studio-code) — Hanan F, Mar 28 '20 at 19:34

You can wrap text by pressing option + z shortcut on mac or alt + z shortcut on windows

If you'd rather reduce the font text you can use command + minus sign shortcut on mac and ctrl + minus sign shortcut on windows
