Hi,

I'm getting increasingly frustrated with Lazarus IDE again. It is generating rubbish code, especially since I use TAB character indentation, and not 2-Space indentation.

Anyway, how do I disable the code completion (or whatever you call it), after I press the ENTER key after I typed "begin".

As you can see from the attached screenshot....

1) The "end;" was generated at the completely wrong indentation level. This happens the whole time, so I would like to disable this code generation thingy, but where???? I looked everywhere in the editor settings and Code Templates. What is it called, and where do I disable it?

2) The "finally" code was correctly indented, but after Lazarus inserted the "end;" code it decided for good measure to screw with my surrounding code too! Arghhhhhh!

The joys of editors trying to be too clever!

I assume if I can disable (1), then (2) should not happen any more.

Any tips on how to disable (1)?

Regards,
Graeme.

Options / Codetools / first tab/node

anything todo with indent => disable.

If you are on the editor settings, the "smart indent" link gets you there

:) Sorry I lost my Lazarus mailing list history. Thanks for the reminder
- that fixed the problem. At least I'm consistent with my annoyances. ;-)

All those options where already disabled, but it didn't help. The old reply from Henry did the trick.

Cheers,
