need to check 2 things--
a- file 'settings/lexer Cobol.json' has the 'margin_string' option
b- this Cobol lexer is activated for your file (see statusbar)

Yes, it's there in lexer Cobol.json:
Code: Select all
{
"margin_string": "8 12 16 72",
}
I only need the guide lines as shown above. Restarting the editor made no difference.

I just checked it: for Lua lexer, opened 'Options / settings - lexer-specific', entered this text there,
Code: Select all
{
"margin_string": "8 12 16 72",
}
and restarted editor. Lua files show these vert-lines.
Try to call 'Plugins / Options Editor', focus this option 'margin_string', and show screenshot of Option Editor?

Fascinating
You can try changing the color of the lines at "Options > Settings - theme - ui... > editor, margins, user defined"
And... sorry, but could you post a screenshot of the editor with COBOL file opened?

Seems like 1 pixel lines don't work well on the 4K screen
@uvviewsoft, is there an option to make them thicker?
