We have several installations of UE32, most are showing the Line, Column indicator on the status bar. Others are showing only the Column. We can find no way to turn the Line indicator of the status bar on. The only thing we can do is turn on the Display Line Number to the left of the text. We would really like to know how to standardize all of our installations of the software, and we would also like to know why the settings are different in the first place.

Shouldn't this be considered a bug? I know on an older version (10.something I think) I was able to turn off the line numbers, but still show the line number in the status bar. I preferred this since I have no need to see the line numbers on the side.

Yeah, that's exactly what I'm saying here. You said in your first post in this thread that this option had to be turned on with some installations in order to show the line number in the status bar. Yet you say in this post that you have it turned off because the line number in the status bar is enough for you. The line number in the status bar is enough for me too. If I turn off the Display Line Numbers function though all I get in my status bar is "C0" for the line number. So if this isn't a bug, how can I get it to display the line number in my status bar without enabling the Display Line Numbers option? And since you say that option can drastically slow down larger files, that's even more of a reason for it to be turned off. I still need to be able to see the line number in the status bar though, like I could in previous versions.

I have not checked the option Disable Line Numbers in the configuration dialog to see the line number in the status bar.

But I have disabled the option Display Line Numbers in the menu View.

Don't mix these 2 options.

The option in the configuration dialog disables line counting.

The option in View menu disables/enables the display of the line number left of every line.

The Display Line Numbers option in menu View is not available if the option Disable Line Numbers in the configuration is checked because the line numbers cannot be displayed without line counting. In other words toggling the visibility of the line numbers bar on left window side is not possible with configuration setting Disable Line Numbers being enabled.

Ahhh, gotcha. I must have been reading too quickly and didn't notice that you guys were referring to two different options. Thanks for the help and the great product. Seems to be working perfectly now.

I'm using UltraEdit version 11.10c+1, I have no line numbers in my status bar, and my View / Display Line Numbers is disabled. However, numerous times I have looked closely through all Advanced / Configuration options and find nothing about disabling or enabling line counts. I have paid particular attention to the Edit tab and the General tab and have not found the necessary option. My version does not have an Editor Display - Miscellaneous section.
