Is it normal if the indicator is on the center of the character instead of how it should be
Both are at the same column but appears to be different? |

Which Visual Assist and Visual Studio versions are you using? What is the name of this Visual Studio plug-in that you use to display the margin? Also, which font are you using in VS?
I just tried to enable the margin in Visual Assist 1848 using VS2010 SP1, default font, and as I can see Visual Assist draws the margin at the correct position for me. Maybe it should be moved by 1 pixel to the right but basically seems to using the right x coord to draw the line.

I am using the latest beta and VS2010 Ultimate SP1. I am using the Productivity Tools here: http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/d0d33361-18e2-46c0-8ff2-4adea1e34fef/
I have the column guidelines turned on and off with same result. The font I am using is default I believe, Consolas at size 10.
It draws the line (as you see in the picture below) after the column 80 mark. And even if it is supposed to be 81 lets say, it eats into the text which should not be the case.
If you look here:
The line of the left is belongs to VS plugin. That should be the correct one at column 80. It should not indicate at column 80.8 or column 81. |

If you set the column indicator to 1, just for an experiment, you will see that the column indicator will be after the first column. It means that only 1 whole column is included. In other words, your longest line will be 1 character width in the program. Would be odd if the column indicator was placed before the very first column, wouldn't it?
If you set the column indicator to 75, you include 75 characters so your longest line's width should be no more than 75 characters. It makes sense, doesn't it? What do you think?
I have put in a bug report to move the line to be exactly between two columns:
case=57518 |

I just checked and yea your right!
If there is an option to auto go to next line once the limit is reached, that would be great! Think it's possible? |

;; Many modern editors and IDEs can graphically indicate the location of the
;; fill column, either by shading the area to the right of the fill column or
;; by drawing a thin line (in design parlance, a `rule') down the length of
;; the editing window. Fill-column-indicator implements both of these
;; facilities in Emacs.
