Change default indentation?

[nenad.bozinovic]

Code editing default tab indentation is equivalent to 2 spaces. How can I change this to 4?

You could add your voice to my feature request from a couple of years back:

PEP8 and editor options

If I clone an anvil app to my local machine and do anything within my local editor, I have PEP8 complaints from my linter which are distracting and annoying. (It particularly doesn’t like the use of two spaces instead of four). Given that it’s almost impossible to find a way to please everyone in this area, could I suggest the use of http://editorconfig.org/? If the ide supported editorconfig, there could be a default config file for any app which could then be ammended to suit individual need…

In the beta editor, the tab size can now be changed from 2 to 4 spaces.

This tab size is now customisable in your profile [image]

Thought I’d leave that here for anyone who stumbles upon this thread.

Great idea! Thank you. And welcome to the Anvil forum, Leonard.

… and pressing ctrl+I reformats the currently open editor to 2 or 4 spaces.
