Allow to select tabs versus spaces in Execute SQL Tabs

[stagg54]

I looked briefly for a similar issue and didn't see one. My work flow is I build queries in the Execute SQL tab and then copy them into my code. They come with all kinds of embedded tabs. However I much prefer spaces. Reformatting a big query is a pain. Not looking to start any kind flame war or debate over tabs versus spaces. It would just be nice to have a little check box in the preferences SQL tab.

not that I know of. I'm new here. I did a quick search and didn't see anything.

Does this feature exist in another product or project? Please provide a link.

I'm sure it does, but I don't have a reference.

Do you have a screenshot? Please add screenshots to help explain your idea.

This is the current preferences screen. I imagine just adding anther drop down like the font drop down or a checkbox at the bottom that says use spaces instead of tabs. Dropdown probably makes more sense, but either one works for me.

Probably doable. Not sure how much effort it'd take though. 😉

Done. It only required allowing the configuration of a property in the editor library (QScintilla). @stagg54, could you give the nightly build a try and report any inconsistency?

Works very well. Thank you.
