Tabs and Indents
| Use tab character |
-
If this check box is selected, tab characters are used for indentation and for code reformatting.
-
When the check box is cleared, IntelliJ IDEA uses spaces instead of tabs.

An indentation consists of two parts. One part results from nesting code blocks
and the other part is determined by alignment.
-
If this check box is selected, the part that results from nesting
contains both tabs and spaces (if necessary), while the part defined by
alignment consists only of spaces.
-
If this check box is cleared, only tabs are used. This means that after reformatting a group of spaces that
fits the specified tab size is automatically replaced with a tab, which may result in
breaking fine alignment.
|
| Tab size | In this text box, specify the number of spaces that fits in a tab. |
| Indent | In this text box, specify the number of spaces (or tabs if the
Use Tab Character
check box is selected) to be inserted for each indent level.
|
| Continuation indent | In this text box, specify the number of spaces (or tabs if the
Use Tab Character check box is selected) to be inserted between the elements
of an array, in expressions, method declarations, and method calls. |
| Keep indents on empty lines | If this check box is selected, IntelliJ IDEA retains indents on empty lines as if they
contained some code. If the check box is cleared, IntelliJ IDEA deletes the tab characters and spaces on empty lines. |
