GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 617907
Preservation of indentation on multiple new lines
Last modified: 2010-05-06 14:28:11 UTC
I use gedit as my primary code editor to write PHP and have done for years. This issue has only risen when upgrading my ubuntu from 9.10 to 10.04 so im not sure if this is an intentional change or not. Either way, its something i miss and while not critical its rather annoying. When i have 1 or more tabs of indentation and hit return for a new line, it correctly keeps the indentation as it should. However, if instead i hit return twice (which i often do) and then press the up key, the tab preservation hasnt been applied and it resets the above line. I hope i've explained this correctly.
This was already fixed in gtksourceview 2.10.1 and it is already in lucid, so if you upgrade your system you should get it back.
Excellent, that worked, thanks for the prompt reply.
