Turning off auto tabbing

Post by miclus »

When writing Java apps, there is this annoying thing where it automatically indents to the previous line's level. Is there any way to turn this off?

See TP's help file under "Maintain indentation" and "Automatically indent blocks" for details. Uncheck as needed under Configure->Preferences->Document Classes->Java. When I change preferences under document classes I first close all open documents. HTH

Thanks. Can't believe I didn't see that. Another issue I have is there is a slight 1 or 2 space area on the editor window to the left that I can't occupy with anything. Is there any way to get rid of that?

Don't think so, think this is fixed to keep the text separated from the line numbers, if have them turned on that is.

Do a single left click in that area or press Ctrl-F2 and you might find out about its purpose :wink:
