Question

Change code tab width preference

I am using CF Builder 3, and for the life of me I can't find how to change the tab width in the code formatter. It is defaulted to 4 spaces wide, but I prefer 2 spaces. And I use tabs, not spaces, for indentation. In the preferences I found 2 or 3 different places where I could change the tab display width, but none of those changes fixed the displayed tab width in .cfms and .cfcs. Am I missing something, or is this a bug?

I was able to change my tab width, but now every CFM page I open stays at the old tab width (4 spaces). I have to open preferences and apply the tab width for every file that I open. Is it just me?

Jake,

You're right.  Both the general editor settings and the custom profile for CFM editing do not appear to respect the tab size setting.  Could you file a bug with Adobe?
