Indentation Rules Ignored

[tamj]

My Preferences > Settings

{
“tab_size”: 3,
“translate_tabs_to_spaces”: true,
“auto_indent”: false,
“smart_indent”: false
}

Yet the files where another indentation was applied (certainly not by me) remain as they were after closing and reopening ST 4200.

Likewise with indentation changes applied via View > Indentation > Tab Width: 3 - they are simply ignored after restarting ST.

Why not dump smart indentation and let users set it for themselves ?

Maybe you want to turn detect_indentation off if your issue is what what tab size is inferred when opening a file

That seems to be the problem.

Many thanks, kk.
