Notepad++ keeps inserting tabs which later messes up my code. This doesn’t just happen when I hit the tab key, but other times as well. I want it to use 4 spaces instead of tabs.
How can I make Notepad++ insert spaces instead of tabs?
Go to the Preferences menu command under menu Settings, and select Language Menu/Tab Settings, depending on your version. Earlier versions use Tab Settings. Later versions use Language. Click the Replace with space check box. Set the size to 4.
