While in the Code Editor, I will often bump Ctrl+Shift (Clumsy right little finger) which puts the editor window in some sort of right aligned mode and there doesn’t seem to be a way to change back to regular left aligned.
Is there some way we can either disable the shortcut or is there another shortcut to change the window back to left aligned?
You could use the brute force method and trap that key combo.
I apparently don’t have that shortcut? Have you looked in the options to see if you can simply unbind it?
What version you use?
Hi AndrewM,
Yes, you can. Use the same key combination, but on the left set of keys.
LEFT Ctrl+Shift align code to the left
RIGHT Ctrl+Shift align code to the right
That’s what I call the most unproductive feature added to a Text Editor ever… specially for developers.

My advice, pop the right ctrl key off your keyboard, no one uses that one anyways

Thank you!
I thought I’d tried all combinations and couldn’t get it to work. It’s not the worst ‘feature’ of a text editor, so long as you know how to change it back.
If you want to disable the feature entirely, press Ctrl+B to open the Editor Keys Binding Tool. Scroll down to “Edit.SetRTL”. The Shortcut field should say Ctrl+Shift+None. Click the Remove button. Click Ok. The alignment feature should never bother you again.

I know this is an old topic, but is it possible to make the change permanent?
