Geany Home key behavior


When using geany and I have line wrapping enabled, pressing the Home key moves the cursor to the beginning of the paragraph rather than beginning of the wrapped line.

For example, if I see the following text with line wrapping, and the cursor is located at the end of the word paragraph, pressing the Home key moves the cursor to the beginning of the word When rather than the beginning of the word key.

Code:
When using geany and I have line wrapping enabled, pressing the Home
key moves the cursor to the beginning of the paragraph rather than
beginning of the wrapped line.
For comparison, kate moves the cursor to the beginning of the wrapped line and not the beginning of the paragraph. That behavior is what I prefer.

Is there an option to change that behavior in geany?

Thanks.

Edit: Never mind. I was not using appropriate search engine key words to find the solution. The keyboard shortcuts I want are Alt-Home and Alt-End. I swapped those shortcuts with Home and End.
