### What issue do you have?

I am still new to Joplin and haven't actually used it until now. I had Version 1.???  
I just updated today and the text in the notes start in the middle of the text editor as if there is an indent and can't figure out how to fix it. There was no indent before. I also tried creating a new note to test and the new note also starts from that position instead of the edge of the page.

@RaveWolf welcome to the forum.

Go to the settings and under **Appearance** try setting the value for **Editor maximum width** to `0`.

Awesome, thank you very much for the welcome and thanks for the assist. It's weird, I actually did see that, but didn't see the fine print under it. It's odd that the recommended width is 600, but can see where it may be a better feel for things like lists. So, now that I know where to change it, I will play around to get the best feel. Thanks again.
