What is this second column where mouse changes to finger?

Hi,

I'm new with UE 11. On the second column there is a small lane where the mouse changes to a pointing finger, but I can't do anything with it. Klicking once or twice is doing nothing in this area. Right-Click is invoking the usual context-menu.

I guess there must be any functionality. If not how can I switch it off, because it is hard to hit the beginning of the line with the mouse without hitting this area.

Thanks, Juergen

It's the code folding gutter. (Search for "code folding" in the Help file for more about what it does.) I don't think that you can disable it, but you can change the background color -- that might make it easier to avoid hitting it.

You can disable code folding under the General tab of the Configuration - look in the Display section.

Edit: Since UE v11.20 the code folding settings to disable for getting rid off this gutter are at Advanced - Configuration - Editor Display - Code Folding:

- Enable show/hide lines and code folding
- Enable show/hide lines for non syntax highlighted files
