I copied code from software developers into my company's user Documentation space to provide examples for users to modify. The code is bracketed within {code} macro markers. Some long lines of code extend beyond the right edge of the browser window and make the window difficult to read since it requires horizontal scrollling. The entire page is affected.
I ask that the code macro make text wrap around the window edge or be configrable so that users, such as me, can make the text wrap around.

[CONFSERVER-10697] Code macro should wrap
Dixan Martinez
added a comment - Neither it wraps in v5.9.5 
For those who want to unwrap code macro.
code { /* forces the code to unwrap */
white-space: nowrap !important;
}
Hi All,
Thank you for your patience with this issue. In our upcoming Confluence release (3.5) we are bundling the new code macro. This will include wrapping for code in code blocks.

I showed this problem to a developer on our dev team and he was able to solve the problem within 10 minutes with some CSS:
.code-comment {
white-space: pre-wrap;
}
If you put that into your Custom HTML / Stylesheet (depending on which one you are using to define styles). This causes it to wrap.
Job done.

added a comment - Has this been implemented? Or dropped? It's key for us. I am having to do my documentation in Word & attach it to a confluence page. Using the code macro means every paragraph ends up being written on a single line and obviously I can expect my clients read that.

Please, can we get this reopened?
