Running geany 1.37. I wanted to make some changes when editing *.yml
files so that indents are always two spaces rather than my customary a tab stop of four characters.
I modified the filetypes.yaml file as follows (according to
filetype_extensions.conf, *.yaml and *.yml files are treated the same):
[indentation] #width=4 # 0 is spaces, 1 is tabs, 2 is tab & spaces #type=1 # *.yml 2023-10-30 width=2 type=0
After clicking on "Reload Configuration" I expected the above changes
to be effective, alas, they are not. Indenting a line in a *.yml file still results in a tab stop of four characters.
Have I missed something to make the changes becoming effective?
Nope, (assuming that you don't have a project open since that overrides the filetype), but as the indents width and type can be set per document they are not changed for open documents, or the user setting would be lost. So close and re-open the documents you want to get the new values.
