Up and Down cursor keys in the editor

Hello skiabox,

If I understand correctly what you need, you should turn off Settings | Editor
| Virtual Space | Allow placement of caret after end of line.

Is there any way I can get up and down keys in the editor to go to the
end of the line instead of going the cursor just up or just down?

Every action initiated from the keyboard is controlled by a keyboard binding map which is entirely configurable by you.

Open the Settings dialog, select the "Keymap" (use the filter, if you like, to find it). Duplicate the Default keymap so you can edit it then expand the Editor Actions section and filter on "Caret" and you'll see all the actions that reposition the current selection (and a few others not related to selection position). You an also filter by existing key binding by clicking on the funnel icon next to the filter field.

Keep in mind that there is a vast complement of keyboard bindings and changing one may necessitate changing another (and another, etc.), so be prepared.

Thnx for the reply but I still cannot manage to do it right.
Can you write an example about the up cursor movement?
Thnx again.

Oh thank you so much!It worked!

I guess I'm not sure what you're trying to do.

If you want to combine two navigation operations in a single keystroke (up and to the end, e.g.), I'm don't think that's possible.
