[Solved] Problem with Indentation
lazarus / 9-Editor

----------------------------------------------------------------------

I had a meltdown with Lazarus a few days ago but I got it running
again with help from the community.  But I had to do a Clean Re-
Install to get it fixed.  Since then whenever I start a project, the
initial code indents to column 7

Code: [Select]uses
      Classes, SysUtils, FileUtil, Forms, Controls, Graphics, Dialogs;

type

{ TForm1 }

      TForm1 = class(TForm)
            procedure FormCreate(Sender: TObject);
      private
            { private declarations }
      public
            { public declarations }
      end;

var
      Form1: TForm1;

I have the same (column 7) problem when adding a new procedure

Code: [Select]procedure something
begin
       |
end;

In Tools/Options I have set ALL Tab related settings to 2, Tabs to
Spaces, Smart Tabs On/Off. I have played with all the settings that
look like they might be related.  I have tried editing
laz_indentation.pas but nothing seems to effect it.  Any ideas on what
I need to set to fix this?

What I am wanting is to have it set to column 2.

My indentation is on two spaces, my settings:

UnChecked: TabToSpaces
Checked: SmartTabs

TabWidth: 2

-------------------------

UnChecked: AutoIndent
Checked: Tab indent blocks

Block indent (spaces): 2
Block indent (tabs): 0

Thanks Blaazen, I tried your settings but it didn't change anything.

Here it works. Changing "Block indent (spaces): 2" to other value has
the effect.
Try to reopen your project (I guess restart of Lazarus is not needed).

I've tried that.  I even rebooted my system and still no change.

OK.  I just got the latest SVN and indentation is working again.
