Hi everyone, there is an indentation problem with the new editor for darkbasic pro (EditorNew.exe [Dark Basic Professional Online\Editor\EditorNew.exe]):
-the lines of the programs are not correctly indented : I use "TAB" to indent my lines but the editor replace every tabulations with a "space".
-Also, it's not possible to select the text and indent it by pressing "TAB": doing this will simply erase the text instead of indent it.
-Also, if you press "TAB" to indent and then press "BACKSPACE" to delete the indentation, it will not delete the indentation: it will only go one "SPACE" back.

hope you understand, try it yourself if you don't... these indentation problems are annoying because my program is not indented anymore: a single "space" replaced every tabulation. The editor I used to write my program was "SYNERGY" and all worked fine, but now it don't work anymore with "EditorNew.exe".
note that when I open my program with another editor than "EditorNew.exe", the "TAB" are there (everything is indented correctly).

please, I ask you to update "EditorNew.exe" or to correct this indentation problem so I can use it the same way I use "SYNERGY".

PS: I'm a french guy, so my english is not so good, sorry for that but it's hard for me to write and translate what I have to say. hope you understand.

I think that's happened for a while Serge, It was like that on the old editor too, I don't think there's a way around it :/

Go to Tools in the menubar. Then go to Options. A new window will open up with the options. Then click Text Editor, and then uncheck the box that says "Replace tab characters with spaces".
Now you will have tab characters.

My computer surpasses all the technologies of the day. What computer do I have?
