Tab is rendering in single column

The text in question. Just copy paste it into a new editor window. You'll see the tab rendered in single column, when it should be tabWidth columns.

<span style="color: #000000">	</span>

This is likely caused by editor.useTabStops. But I can repro no matter it's true or false.

Root cause: the inline color decorator

@rebornix Not really, it's plaintext file not html file, and you can repro with <span> </span> too.

I found this assumption is actually incorrect and it's how a tab works. You can verify by

• Copy a hard tab
• Create an untitled file
• Type in three spaces
• Paste the hard tab
• You can see the tab is rendered in the width of tabWidth - 3
