Word Wrap within the Cell Viewer

May I suggest that you include a facility to word wrap the cell viewer in a browse. When working with long OuterXML strings, for example, it would be very useful to see the full extent of the string. 

 

Thank you

Maybe I'm misunderstanding, but isn't that how the cell viewer currently works?

Thanks, @jpoz it does indeed, however, it is not truely wrapping as you need to scroll the horizontal bar to read the whole string. If you are working on an unformated XML or HTL and looking for patterns, etc, the the only real alternative is to copy and paste the whole lot into a text editor where you can see the whole text in a single view without having to scroll lef and right.

 

However, I do get your point, and it is well made, but I am always looing for an easier more efficient way to work.

 

Thanks
