problem with IDEs which when you click on a line in editor, the cursor does't go to the last written character

Question

I've seen a few IDEs like IAR embedded workbench or MikroC-pro from mikroelektronika, that when you click on a line, the cursor doesn't go to the last character. instead, it just sits right there on the white space. the problem seems to be same as this one :

How do I get my cursor to jump to the last character on a line?

but I can't find similar options or any other relevant option to do that. I've included a few screenshots from MikroC editor options dialog:

and after open options dialog under advanced editor options:

On IAR Embedded Workbench IDE, select Tools > Options... in top menu. This opens IDE Options dialog. Select Editor node on the tree on the left side of the dialog, then uncheck Enable virtual space checkbox. Finally click OK to apply changes.

On MikroC, disable Scroll past end of line checkbox on Editor options dialog Options tab.

@TirdadSadriNejad I don't know about MikroC, but have you tried disabling `Scroll past end of line` shown in your screenshot? – user694733 Mar 12 '20 at 09:41
yes, it worked! if you mind updating the answer to be helpful for others it'll be good. – Tirdad Sadri Nejad Mar 12 '20 at 09:44
