I have been using Mu 1.1.1 to edit CircuitPython files on a M1 MacBook Pro running Monterey 12.2.1. At time Mu complains about code lines being too long. Every time I use (supposedly) correct syntax to create continuation lines, Mu complains bitterly about invalid syntax. I have encountered under indented and over indented lines, but I cn never find a continuation system that Mu will swallow. I have dealt with the problem by just ignoring the long line warnings. Has anyone else run across this issue?
Thanks

Hi.
But, can you upload the code to the board and get it working?
How many spaces are you using for indentation?
Regards,
Sara

Yes, CircuitPython doesn’t seem to mind the long lines. So the code uploads and runs. I have tried 2 space, 4 spaces and multiples of these with no success.

So, I guess it might be a problem with the Mu software?
Do you have trouble with other codes? Or do they all work despite those warnings?

Mu will also flag other syntax errors, but those seem to be valid problems that are usually easily fixed. At this point, I have only use Mu for CircuitPython.
