Category: IDLE Group: Python 2.4 >Status: Closed >Resolution: Fixed Priority: 5 Submitted By: reson5 (reson5) Assigned to: Kurt B. Kaiser (kbk) Summary: TAB SETTINGS DONT WORK (win) Initial Comment: Hi! I have downloaded newer version of Python and unfortunately the TAB settings in IDLE have no effect on the spaces inserted - ALWAYS 4 spaces. Previous release had the same problem. Win 2k, Python 2.4.2. Regards, Reson ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Kurt B. Kaiser (kbk) Date: 2006-08-08 13:59 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=149084 Ah, ok, I see what you are talking about. This was fixed in 2.5. Try 2.5b3! See Rev 38319 and 38400 at http://svn.python.org/view/python/trunk/Lib/idlelib/ EditorWindow.py?rev=50833&view=log I'm making another change in this area: if the user selects Toggle Tabs and Cancel, his indentation setting is changed to 8. It should not change unless he actually selects Tab indentation. Change should be in 2.5c1, due out around 18Sep. These changes should not be backported to 2.4 since they are essentially feature changes, not just bugs. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Kurt B. Kaiser (kbk) Date: 2006-08-07 23:03 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=149084 Yes, as designed. Python strongly encourages the use of four space indent. If you really need to change this for some reason, modify the config-main.def section [Indent] num-spaces value. The colums per tab dialog in tabify/untabify is used for converting tabbed code to spaced code. Weirdly indented code (i.e. 6 spaces) can be converted to tabs and then back to four space indent using those two functions. What is your use case? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Kurt B.
