It is on one line. But if you want it to not wrap, you can:

Open Settings View using Cmd+, on macOS or Ctrl+, on other platforms
Click the Editor tab on the left
Uncheck "Soft Wrap"

not working.

That setting only affects new editors. You can use my soft-wrap-indicator package to easily toggle the setting for the currently open editor.

I forgot to mention
"Soft Wrap" is uncheck by default.

worked perfectly until the yesterday update.

Soft wrap is forcibly turned on for files with long lines, to avoid hangs when attempting to load or edit the file.

ok. how do i stop this?

I don't think you can, short of building Atom yourself. The value is hardcoded.

I second the "now I have to use another browser".

MAX_SCREEN_LINE_LENGTH = 500

Not the end of the world, just inconvenient and unexpected.

30 mins ago everything was on one line. I clicked soft wrap to take a look at something and now it will only toggle between hard and soft wrap. For me, atom has been working on no wrap for over a year. Im using atom with Nuclide.

This really should be a setting since hard coded value is not a good idea and is annoying to new users since the setting appears to not work.
