'How to get rid of a vertical line in the editor pane of IntelliJ Idea?
recently a gray vertical line appeared in about the middle of the editor pane of my IntelliJIdea Community Edition 13.1.4 probably due to some manipulations with the settings that I cannot remember. I cannot find how to get rid of it, which is annoying. Who can help?
Thanks.

Updated answer:
Go to Preferences ? Editor ? General ? Appearance and uncheck Show hard wrap and visual guides.
Original answer:
Go to Settings ? Editor ? General ? Appearance and uncheck Show Right Margin.
You can also configure where the right margin is in the code style settings.

For PyCharm 2017 and aboce it was moved, but can still be done by:
Editor > Color Scheme > General. Then in the new control to the right, open Editor > Guides > Hard wrap guide, and uncheck the checkbox for "Foreground".

Settings -> Editor -> Code Style
you can find 'Hard wrap at [value] columns'.
230 columns is good to me.

On windows, for IntelliJ IDEA 2021.3 (Community Edition):
- File
