Dear List, as I am cleaning my code for release in blue share, I wonder which is the tab-length in blue. As my code tends to be complicated, I try to arrange it neatly, with all opcodes in columns etc. .That makes it fairly readable for others. However I have used other editors for writing the code. If I do now import the csd into blue, things are pretty out of line. What was readable before seems to be pretty messed up, as the tab-length differs. Is there such as a default length of a tab in blue? If yes, how long is it? It would be great if I could swop easily my code between several editors and it would stay nice as they all are set to the same tab-length. All the best, Jan Jacob sound | movement | object | space sonic architecture | site: http://www.sonicarchitecture.de spatial electronic composition | 2nd order ambisonic music |

Hi Jan Jacob, I'm not really sure to be honest, but it's either 8 or 10. I am thinking that this should be updated so that when you press tab it puts in spaces instead of a tab character, precisely for this reason of making it easy to read across environment. (I'd probably prefer 4 spaces at a time myself, could probably just make this configurable). For your situation, I'd try using a text editor to convert your code from tabs to spaces (most editors have this kind of feature). Once it's spaces, it will be the same across any text editor. steven On Fri, Apr 9, 2010 at 4:23 PM, Jan Jacob Hofmann <jj...@so...> wrote: > Dear List, > > as I am cleaning my code for release in blue share, I wonder which is > the tab-length in blue.

Dear Steven, thanks a lot, your information has been very useful. I found out that the length of a tab is 8 spaces in blue. I guess it is useful to detab the code before exporting/sharing, however I'd prefer to be able to work with tabs in general instead of spaces because they behave slightly differently in terms of alignment. I was able to re- format my code nicely and put lots of comments into it. Soon it will be ready to share.
