    I find the automatic whitespace cleanup in Creator extremely useful. (Tools->Options->Text Editor->Behavior->Cleanups Upon Saving->Clean whitespace)

    However, there are a few types of text documents that need e.g. the correct number of tabs, even trailing tabs, to work correctly (e.g. tab-separated tables)

    Is there a way to enable/disable the automatic whitespace cleanup depending on file type? It would be sufficient if I could enable it for "all source files", and disable it for "all other files".

      Hi,

      AFAIK, no there's not, but it might be an interesting feature request for Qt Creator

        Did some searching, and found no suggestion for it. So I wrote one:
