Title: Tabs to spaces for modified lines only
Post by: Phil Barila on April 19, 2012, 02:50:06 PM

"Tabs to spaces" for modified lines only, like "Strip trailing spaces" can be now.  See:  http://community.slickedit.com/index.php/topic,7984.0.html

1. Expand tabs to spaces for only modified lines, such as the following link:

That's been around for some time now (since at least v16, I believe, maybe even v15).

The setting is here:
Tools | Options > File Options > Save > Strip trailing spaces = Strip trailing spaces only from modified lines.

That's the default setting.  Each language also has its own individual setting for that, which can either use the default, or can override it.

Chrisant, Prax asked for untabify on modified lines only.  I've asked for that repeatedly on this forum as well.  Not sure why the otherwise responsive Slick team is so steadfastly ignoring that particular request, as it seems relatively simple.

I know this setting, but I want to improve is another feature,as follow :
Tools | Options > File Options > Save >Expand tabs to spaces = on/off

I like the above feature and it can refine my source code when I use the "Expand tabs to spaces" feature.
I want this feature to be improved for the "only from modified lines" function,
because some git or svn repository has unnecessary modification when this feature is "on".
