Scite Indentation Settings (tab stop)


Recommended Posts

I'm having problems with the indentiation settings. I can't make my tab stops look like on the second variable ($thetabiwant).

I basically want the line before the code when I use tab or use enter.

It really helps my overview when I see the line wrapping my code. But atm I have to add a space by hand everytime.

Can anyone help me out?

When using the full SciTE4AutoIt3 you could use SciTEConfig (Ctrl+F1) to set the Indent to what you want it to be.

Else just use the in SciTEUser.properties found under OptionsSet User Options:

use.tabs=1
indent.size=4

and set it to what you want it to be....   or am I not understanding your question properly?

That doesnt help me. It just makes a bigger TAB but the line still doesnt appear.

Maybe this helps to clarify:

The Indentation Setting doesn't add the line despite the TAB consinsting of more spaces.

There is a line on the actual tab position in case there is a space or tab character used, else the actual character is shown.

Not sure why this would help you in any way to make the code readable as the characters align nicely with the "tab line".

Anyway, I do not know of a simple way to accomplish this.

That's not what that line is used for, so if you want to do something non-standard like that, you'll need to do it manually. Maybe run the file through a find/replace that replaces all tabs with tab and a space.

If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.

I hereby grant any person the right to use any code I post, that I am the original author of, on the autoitscript.com forums, unless I've specifically stated otherwise in the code or the thread post. If you do use my code all I ask, as a courtesy, is to make note of where you got it from.
