Tab creates unwanted spaces

13 years ago • updated 13 years ago • 2

With the current dev build (2138, not sure about the others), if I add a tab to a text that happen to have columns it will add spaces to match the indent even if "Indent using spaces" is not selected.

For instance, start with a simple list of elements separated by tab:

FOO1 FOO2 FOO3

Then on the second line type:

B1<tab>B2<tab>B3

it will add two spaces before each tab. Additionally it will autocomplete even if we don't want to, i.e. if you start the second column by typing FO<tab> it will automatically autocomplete to FOO3.

I am unable to replicate this. Please ensure that in the status bar it reads "Tab Size: x" and not "Spaces: x".

Nevermind. That's a side-effect of the ElasticTabstops plugin. My bad.
