    I'm attempting to change the default tab and indent size settings from the Qt default 4 and 4 to 2 and 2. I go to Edit -> Preferences -> C++ -> Current Settings and copy Qt [built-in], then change tab and indent size under the General tab to 2. I click Apply then OK, but my tabs and indents are still 4 spaces wide.

    I've tried restarting Qt Creator to no avail. I've verified that the settings match what I had set previously in Qt Creator 5.0.3 that do work.

    Any advice on how to further troubleshoot?

      @flatland3r update Qt Creator to the newest version. But also, go to Preferences -> Text Editor -> Behavior -> Tabs And Indentation and change the settings there, it should help.

        @sierdzio Thanks for the reply. I went ahead and updated to 12.0.1 and verified that Preferences -> Text Editor -> Behavior -> Tabs and Indentation is also set to:

        Spaces Only
        Tab size: 2
        Indent size: 2
        Align continuation lines: With Spaces

        I also tried changing these settings under Qt Quick -> Code Style. Anything else I can try?

          @flatland3r said in Qt Creator 10.0.0 not following indent settings:

          go to Edit -> Preferences -> C++ -> Current Settings and copy Qt [built-in],

          just to double check: this new copied profile is selected as active, right?

          I don't have other ideas, sorry.
