About Indentation In Kate
Hi everybody!!
I would like to ask you a question regarding indentation configuration in kate
First I have indentation-mode set to normal and static word wrap enabled.
If a line starts with n blank spaces and I do a carriage return in the middle
of the line, the cursor in the next line is located at position n. In other
words, the first non blank character in the next line starts in the same
position as the one in the previous line (so that both lines are aligned).
Example:
<><><>Line 1 Line 1 Line 1 Line 1 Line 1 Line 1 Line 1 [carriage return]
<><><>Line 2 Line 2 Line 2 Line 2 Line 2 Line 2 Line 2
(<> stands for a blankl space)
However, if I do not do the carriage return and let the line to be wrapped,
the cursor in the next line starts at position one, while I would prefer the
new line to inherit the initial blank spaces of the previous line. Example:
<><><>Line 1 Line 1 Line 1 Line 1 Line 1 Line 1 Line 1 [line wrapped]
Line 2 Line 2 Line 2 Line 2 Line 2 Line 2 Line 2
Who can I configurate indentation to do what I want?
Thanks in advance.

This is not possible to my knowledge. It only works in dynamic word wrap mode.

RE: About Indentation In Kate
You can't configure indentation to do this. The second line that is created when the word wrap kicks in is not a new line at all, but just a continuation of the previous line. If you were to turn off the word wrap feature, the text that previously wrapped would just continue on the same line, and a horizontal scroll bar would appear
