I have all of my indentation settings set to 2 characters per tab, no conversion to spaces. Ruby/Rails rhtml files show 8 characters per tab when opened, however, when adding a new tab, the cursor moves 2 characters and they are converted to 2 spaces. By default, the rhtml extension uses the html indentation engine, which I also have set to 2 characters with no space conversion. I tried creating an rhtml indentation engine, with the same results. I am running NetBeans IDE 6.0 (Build 200711261600) on Linux (Ubuntu 7.04), but have a colleague who has verified the problem running the same Netbeans version on Vista. The 8 character tabs are not being converted to spaces, but it is very hard to work with these files as the code runs very far to the right when indented. Also, this issue did not exist on Netbeans 6 beta 1 or 2. Thank you in advance, for your support. . . . Dan Clarizio
Hi Dan, can you please checl whether this is still a problem in the latest NetBeans 6.1 builds? You can download them here: http://deadlock.netbeans.org/hudson/job/trunk/ Thanks.
I'm also not possible to set tab-width. (like e.g. with :tabstop in Vim). But we are feature-frozen, TM -> future.
This seems to work for me, or I'm not understanding the problem correctly. Can you please try the latest dev build (http://bits.netbeans.org/dev/nightly/latest/) and reopen if this is still an issue? Thanks.
