hi all
i often work with landscape-2 columns documents
- when i am in the middle of a line of the right column, and i ove the cursor towards the left, when it arrives at the left side of this line, the cursor jumps… to the right side of a line of the left column
that seems non logical to me, because, the text is to be read first on left column, and then onright column : if you read youd should not jump your eyes from one column to the other at each line. When you are reading the end of the bottom line of the left column, then only you jump to the upper line of the right column.
So, the behaviour of the cursor does not follow the normal behaviour of the person who is reading
is there a means to change that ?
- if i have writen only, say, 6 lines, the « normal » behaviour on a text editor would be, in y opinion, to fill 6 lines in the left column : only when the left column is filled, then the text goes on on the right column. Instead of that, texmacs always try to balance the two columns. So if i have written only 6 lines, texmacs will dispatch 3 lines on the left column, and 3 lines on the right column.
is there a means to change this ?
