In netbeans, if I select some text and press Tab , it works correctly

  • 0

In netbeans, if I select some text and press Tab, it works correctly and the text is indented to the right side as expected.

But if I then try to backspace behind the text, it only removes one space at a time. Very annoying.

Is there any way to change this setting, so backspacing behind a tabbed line causes the whole tab to be removed and not just 1 space?

    I don’t use Netbeans (anymore), but usually the shortcut for this is Shift+Tab.
