For some strange reason, WebStorm has decided that all tabs typed in for a single file shall be single spaces, instead of the 4 the editor is set for.
I have checked, all my other source files are still working correctly.
Things I have tried:
Anyone else ever seen anything like this? It's driving me nuts not to be able to tab!
Few ideas:
You have Detect and use existing file indents for editing
option enabled and it's somehow remembers those indents. Try disabling that option at Settings (Preferences on Mac) | Editor | Code Style
.
Try re-creating file from scratch (especially if you need option from #1 to be enabled):
Do you have any .editorconfig
files in your project (even above the project root)? Maybe that file contains special settings for this file (that's of course if EditorConfig plugin is installed and enabled).
