Hello,

My tab width preference in General / Editors / Text Editors is set to 2,
but tabs and automatic indentation are 4 spaces width.
Also there is no tab width preference in C++ editor, contrary to the
doc. CDT version is 3.0.
Is it a bug?

Hi Patrick,

I have filled a bug about this problem. See the bug 102936:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=102936

If you more info about this bug just add it to the bug report.

CDT 3.0 use the global setting for the tab in C++ editor (you can click
on the link at the top).

If you don't use replace 'tab by space' option you can display the tab
correctly in the editor after a fresh startup by changing the value to 7
for example and back to 2. The editor should display the tab correctly.

Regards,
Drix

There is also a workaround in the comments.

Thanks for the workaround! I have mark my bug report as duplicate, next
