    I have a default tab of 4 spaces. This is set for all file associations. My settings look exactly the same as 2 other colleagues using the same settings.

    When I tab in a text file, I am only getting 2 spaces.

        @Max-Russell

        this setting means that if pressing the tab it jumps to the next tab stop which would
        be a multiple of 4 in your case.

        E.g pressing tab after “a” jumps to e, after “b” still jumps to e …after “d” jums to i

        abcdefghi
        a   e
        ab  e
        abc e
        abcd    i
        

        Cheers
        Claudia
