Move text cursor to previous string when I am at the left corner of current string

Question

Is it possible in IntelliJ IDEA to move cursor to previous string when it is at the left corner of current string and I am pushing on left arrow keyboard key.

Let me explain:

1) Text cursor at the left corner of line 4

2) I am pushing on left arrow keyboard key

3) All I want to get - move text cursor to end of previous (3) line

But IDEA not moving text cursor from previous line, it just stays there.

Help me please.

This is because by default IntelliJ allows placing the caret after the end of line. When you press your ← key, it does not move as it would have to go to the infinite right side of your file, which is not very convenient (at least that's how I understand it :p).

Go to Settings > Editor and uncheck Allow placement of caret after end of line, this will solve your problem.
