Shift tab should un-indent one tab per key

Post by dkafrissen »

Greetings,

Other editors do this. There needs to be a opposite of the tab key. In this case shift-tab. Hold the shift key and for each time you hit tab the cursor is un-indented once.

Thanks in advance,

Try highlighting the row(s) you'd like to unindent and shift-tab will work. Ctrl-Shift-I will also unindent one tab without the need to highlight a line.

Where is the cursor?

Okay so I am now using the Ctrl-Shift-I command. However, the cursor seems to "wander". Take a look at the behavior of the latest Netbeans. The cursor goes to the beginning of the string when you unindent which makes editing easier.
