Sublime Text 2 unindents labels and access modifiers by default

How can I change that? I don't see any option in the preferences nor do I know of any plugin.

I want to avoid this style:

class Foo
{
private:
    void bar();
}

EDIT:

I'm using C++ and my style is like this:

class Foo
{
  private:      // Half tab (or two spaces)
    void bar(); // One tab
}

While I'm used to simply typing two spaces then private: and hit Enter,now I have to type private: hit Enter and navigate back to private to re-indent it. It's kind of a workflow kill.

Solution

  • Found the best way to disable auto unindent on public private and protected keywords, by editing the Indentation Rules.tmPreferences file in Packages/C++. What I did is comment out the line:

    |   ^ \s* (public|private|protected): \s* $

    under the decreaseIndentPattern key.
