default is 2 and the maximum is 16. The Block indent typically should agree with the
tab stops in the Tab stops option. Perform a block indent by selecting a region of
code and pressing CTRL+SHIFT+I (to indent the code to the right) or
CTRL+SHIFT+U (to move the code to the left).
l
Tab stops: Use to set the number of spaces to advance when you enter a tab
character or to set a series of tab stops. Enter a single integer to set the number of
spaces to advance with each tab. Enter a sequence of two or more integers, each
separated by a space, to specify tab stops. The sequence must be in ascending
order. Tab stops are measured in number of space characters. For example, a value
of 20 places the tab stop at the 20th space character. You can also use the drop-
down list to select a previously entered value.
