Re: Tab size do not match in editors and final rendering

30-Jan-21 23:51

Tabs (ASCII code= 9) in editors are set to 8 spaces, but are 4 spaces rendered pages.
When pasting pieces of code indented with tabs, it make things complicated
Article wizard editor is 8 spaces for a tab, but rendered articles are using 4 spaces for a tab.
Same in Q&A and other places I checked.

Paste this in an editor (CP Wizard Editor) to see:

Kinda. Mozilla still doesn't support the standard tab-size. One needs to use -moz-tab-size.

Looks like I have to moderate my claim.
Looks like it works in textarea
So in Article Wizard Editor:
- in Render mode, it don't work, tabs are 8 spaces.
- In Source mode, tabs are 4 spaces.
On FF Smile | :)

Looks even more complicated:

Thank you for your time searching.
It happen that Suddenly, I see a change of behavior.
My understanding so far is that in some conditions that I am investigating further, there is a problem with the css.
I am using FF since years.
For years, I have taken the habit to convert tabs to spaces before pasting in CP editor or textarea.
Then I recently understood that CP pages where rendering tabs with 4 spaces.
So I started to paste code formatted with tabs set to 4 spaces, prepared in my editor.
Then today
- textarea started to render the tabs with 4 spaces, I don't remember seeing this before.
Article Wizard Editor:
- before today, I don't remember seeing the <pre> background being applied in rendered contain of articles, and tabs were 8 spaces.
- Then today, wizard started to render correctly while opening the page, then after clicking 'Source' button 2 times, new rendering lost the background and 4 spaces.
- then now everything look fixed.

Is it possible that someone fixed some kind of css override today ?
[Update]
or it is FF weird behavior.

Yeah - I did Smile | :)

One bit you're missing is that we actually replace tabs with spaces on the backend.

The only way I can catch this is to look while you're logged on. I think you're a few hours ahead of Toronto so I'll keep my eyes open tomorrow morning and if you're on and you see it happen again let me know and hopefully I'm on when it happens.

I think it is not worth to pay too much attention to that. It's not a problem if it shows 'Sign out from ...' for me. I only reported this to give a hint which might eventually also indicate other problems.

Anyway thank you very much and from my side no problem to close the 'ticket'.

Thanks, but it's still bugging me.

This message will be shown when the system sees two or more sessions at once. The fact that you see an indication of two sessions when you are logged in only once is very odd. Either something else is logging in, or appearing to log in, or we can't count.

Are you going through an anonymising proxy, or do you have adblockers or uBlock installed?

I can assure, that I'm logged in only on one pc at CP (with this new acc, maybe imply a thing with my previous account?)
Proxy: No, no proxy
Add blocker: no, not at that personal laptop which is the only one which I use for CP at this moment.

Other observation:
It appears usually after visit CP in the morning... and it disapears after a 'while'.

Really I don't like to disturb you with this.

I assume the time is shown as my local time and in this case I can say: no, I did not close the browser between 5:28AM and 5:42AM. I did closed the browser the day before at about 11PM and started the browser today again about 10AM.
