Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 200807280848) Java: 1.6.0_07; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 10.0-b23 System: Linux version 2.6.24-20-generic running on i386; ISO-8859-1; pt_BR (nb) *** Issue 142146 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. *** The problem here is the follow, there is two 'Expand tabs to spaces', one for 'All languages' and other for 'Java'. So, you should change the Java to see the behaviour change for java sources. To solve this ambiguous understand, I filed the issue http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=142146 Maybe it is a invalid issue. What do you think? hmichel is very probably right here - the problem is probably that reporter set the setting for "All Languages", expecting this would affect Java settings. Is this right, piero? I have tested this with build from 29.07 and "Expand tabs to spaces" works for me as expected... jirka, what do you think? Try to check/uncheck expand tabs to spaces when Java is selected in the list... It works well, doesn't it? hmichel is very probably right here - the problem is probably that reporter set the setting for "All Languages", expecting this would affect Java settings.

Try to check/uncheck expand tabs to spaces when Java is selected in the list... It works well, doesn't it? Yes it works for me as well. The problem the ambiguous label as hmichel reported. This options really didn't work short time ago but this bug was already fixed (issue 138991) I guess this issue can be closed now if it is working for everyone. for me it is working now as well. and it is totally possible that I used the "All languages" tab. OK, I will now close this issue as INVALID. Please watch issue 138991 and maybe read issue 142208 too (if you like the idea, make some noise on the netcat mailing list;)) - Ups... I meant this issue as the first one (submitted by hmichel): http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=142146 This is a valid problem. 'All languages' customizer is meant to control settings of all languages, see also my comments in issue #142146. I'm not adding anything new, but like to chime in by saying this is a definite UI issue. I mean, any reasonable person would take "All Languages" to mean *All* languages - including Java. Either you relabel the combobox to "All Other Languages" and default to Java (it *is* the IDE's first language, right??) - or have "All Languages" and individual ones for all the other things the IDE supports (e.g. Java, HTML, XML, C++, etc.) This will be solved in issue #142146. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 142146 *** Integrated into 'main-golden', available in build *200808201401* on http://bits.netbeans.org/dev/nightly/ Changeset: http://hg.netbeans.org/main/rev/1054ca493e54 User: Vita Stejskal <vstejskal@netbeans.org> Log: #141974: better formatting settings customizers |
