I might be wrong, but I believe it depends on the font width. Maybe try different fonts.

You have “translate_tabs_to_spaces” set to true, so tabs get converted to spaces. That’s why you have 4 spaces.

python require 1 tab width equal 4 space width，I find It’s my font-face not suitable ，when I set my sublime default font-face ,it’s very good. thank you!

I might be misunderstanding you, but python (pep8) prefers spaces for indentation.
(https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/#tabs-or-spaces)
A strong preference seems to be for 4 spaces.
(http://python.net/~goodger/projects/pycon/2007/idiomatic/handout.html#whitespace-1)
From this we can conclude that you need translate_tabs_to_spaces = true and tab_size = 4.
There is no requirement for one tab to be as wide as 4 spaces, what gave you that idea?
The font-face is only an aesthetic choice, so the code looks nicer and more organized visually.
