How can I toggle word wrap in Visual Studio

Question

Does Visual Studio  NET have a way to toggle word-wrap on and off   I am used to this feature in Eclipse which allows you to right click and toggle word wrap on and off so that when you have long lines that extend out to the right  you don t have to move the bottom scroll bar right and left to read your code html  http   web archive org web 20131027224437 http   ahtik com 80 blog 2006 06 18 first-alpha-of-eclipse-word-wrap-released

Open the output window  Look for the little icon on the very right-hand side of the toolbar that starts with the text  Show output from   in it   It looks like a small window with a carriage return icon   When you hover over it  Visual Studio should display  Toggle Word Wrap  near your mouse pointer  Click that icon    You now have learned something that was so painfully obvious I feel embarrassed for not knowing this long ago and thus have chosen to pay my dues and share my answer with others so they don t suffer the same agony I have   Seriously  this is really useful for those with small screens   I have a small Lilliput USB monitor that is good for small tool windows  Skype IM  etc   It works great for putting the output window on  except that it sucks having to always sideways scroll   After just putting up with sideways scroll for months I finally decided to see if I could make it word wrap   The answer was so easy but the amount of time effort it saves is tremendous
