Once this PR will be merged (I need to find time to work on it), it will give the capability to customize indentation, and other standard settings specified in īut I'm pretty sure that some people would like to have the capability to customize indentation with an UI preferences like #872 and in this case, Eclipse Platform will required to provide a new extension point to add custom preferences to the generic editor. editorconfig support with eclipse-platform/#90 To try fixing this problem, I have started to contribute with. It requires a big change in Eclipse Platform to provide the capability to provide custom spaces/tabs indentation for XML but we need really that. Its just not ready to be included with the "Eclipse for Java Enterprise." but for an addon to get better JS/TS I agree it is superior to could confirm that, but I'm not sure that WWD will use the WTP Settings.įor XML, I created a Formatting preference page #860 (comment) which provides the main format settings (not the whole but the main important).īut I think the main problem is about spaces/tabs indentation preferences. I'm not a fan of how WWD just commandeers what is normally a plain text editor and then calls it "Generic" regardless of what mode. If you say its possible I'm fine with Generic Editor.įor example some modes like XML or HTML I might want tabs for indent and others I might want spaces (which is broken for YAML as I prefer my "Generic Editor" to use tabs).Īlso for "Generic Editor" I expect it to be a plain text editor. I care because it doesn't make since and I'm curious how you are going to make each mode configurable since it just uses the Generic Editor. I don't care about the technical reasons of why all modes are configured through one Generic Editor. XML especially since Eclipse has always had great support for please read Its not that I don't think it would be useful for things like YAML or Javascript where obviously WTP doesn't work well but things like HTML, XML and arguably CSS were already working fine. ![]() Contributions to fill that gap are welcome. ![]() It's more ready that former editors that were getting slowly out of sync with most languages/modern features.
