Description

Hello! I hope this is the right plate to post these kind of issues.

I've been a **SpeQ** user for several years, and I'm now trying to use it's successor **Math Notepad**.
I like it a lot! It's keeping the functionality I loved in **SpeQ**, while improving on graphing and ease of use. 🙂

However, I have some display issues with long formulas.
Basically, it would be nice if they were displayed on multiple lines.

Currently, we only see either the end of the code line, or the start. This makes it really difficult to read the formula as a whole.

Seeing start of line:
![image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/b48cdd5d-7708-49cb-b697-1d7c536a398b)

Or seeing the end of the line:
![image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/e533fe9a-454e-4af2-b083-27c524087067)

So here are my suggestions:
- It would be nice if the page width could be enlarged, or if long formulas could be displayed on multiple lines.
- If part of a formula needs to be hidden, it would be nice if "..." would be displayed to show that the line is not complete and some part is hidden.
- Unrelated, but it would be nice to have a "Save As" menu option as well.
