How to get tabs instead of spaces (Koneki) [message #1226711]

I want to use tabs instead of space for my source code.

I tried to set this in the preferences:
Windows -> Preferences
General -> Editors -> Text editors
Displayed tab with: 4
Insert spaces for tabs (not checked).

When I select all my source, right click and choose: Source -> Format
The idents are 2 spaces. So no tabs and not the size of 4.

Questions:
1) What am I missing?
2) How can I use tabs instead of spaces?

Hi,

Yes, you can use tab instead of spaces.
To do that you should use the formatter preferences.

You could change it for the whole workspace :

Menu => Windows/Preferences/Lua/Formatter

or change it only for a specific project :

rightclick on project =>Properties/Lua/Formatter
