Put another way: This feature is called "wrap at right margin" but Netbeans is wrapping regardless of whether the text hits the right margin. Dusan, any chance you could fix this one quickly? I'd really like to use this feature. |
Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 201608090002) Java: 1.8.0_102; Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 25.102-b14 Runtime: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 1.8.0_102-b14 System: Windows 10 version 10.0 running on amd64; Cp1252; en_CA (nb) User directory: C:\Users\Gili\AppData\Roaming\NetBeans\dev Cache directory: C:\Users\Gili\AppData\Local\NetBeans\Cache\dev 1. Enable Project Properties -> Formatting -> Java -> Comments -> Wrap text at right margin 2. Given: /** * {@code <text>} = Text that was added or removed<br> * {@code [ ]} = The position of the unexpected text */ 3. Netbeans will wrap this into: /** * {@code <text>} = Text that was added or removed<br> {@code [ ]} = The position of the * unexpected text */ 4. Expected behavior: feature should only wrap Javadoc lines if they surpass the right margin. Lines that are shorter should not get wrapped into the previous line because doing so can reduce readability.
