Use the Right margin position drop-down list to set the position of this
indicator. This indicator is an on-screen visual reference only. It does not print,
and does not enforce word wrap on lines that exceed the number of characters
set for it. It can be useful to indicate the right margin of the printed page,
making it easy to determine whether a line of code extends beyond the
printable area of the page.

the distance from the left margin to the right margin indicator is 80 characters.
