Answer 1

There are a few settings that can affect soft wrapping in Atom. They are all in the Settings view, accessed by pressing ⌘, (command+comma) if you're using the default keybinds on OS X.

First, to enable soft wrapping, check the "Soft Wrap" checkbox. This will enable soft wrapping at the edge of the window:

If you want to soft wrap at the line down the right side of the editor, check the "Soft Wrap At Preferred Line Length" checkbox:

The line indicates your preferred line length, and you can change its position by editing the number under "Preferred Line Length," which affects wrapping with the above option enabled:

Finally, if you want the wrapped lines to be indented a bit, you can set a value in the "Soft Wrap Hanging Indent" option:

Thanks for the answer. Could you also add how I can add a keyboard shortcut to toogle soft wrap in Atom. I have been trying to do that for some time now, but no luck. I want to assign the key alt + z to atom for toggling soft wrap. – Chinua
