Turn off Smart Indenting in VWD?

The Smart Indenting "feature" is driving me absolutlely crazy in VWD.

Problem: VWD in Code View insists on tabbing a lot of my code over to it's
own liking and effects mainly my comments in the code.

First of all, I've searched the help files and searched forums.asp.net. I
can't seem to find a solution so I thought I'd try here. When I look at
Tools >> Options and look under Text Editor >> All Languages >> Tabs, it has
a subtle message on the right side stating "The indentation settings for
individual text formats conflict with each other.". Gee - thanks.

I have tried setting all languages the same and everything I can think of
and nothing stops it from scooting my comments over an extra 5-10 spaces.
Further more, when I select one of the choices under Indenting, mainly
"None", it never sticks. It always comes back to that message I stated
above. I can't seem to stop VWD from reformatting my code.

I've complete uninstalled it and reinstalled it an I still have the same
problem. Any pointers??

It turns this:

'Testing for a true condition
If X = 1 Then

'Do something
MyCommand()

'If it tests false then.....
Else
OtherCommand()

End If
into this:

'Testing for a true condition
If X = 1 Then

'Do something
MyCommand()

'If it tests false then.....
Else

OtherCommand()

End If

I am just starting to learn Java J2RE 5.0. I coded the matrix library below and found that the array accessing is really slow since each access is checked: http://f1.pg.briefcase.yahoo.com/bc/agascoig/vwp2?.tok=bccV1CVBYRRfg_eF&.dir=/Guest&.dnm=ComplexDoubleMatrixJava.zip&.src=bc It appears that with gcj and a -f switch I can turn off the array bounds checking. Will a JVM ever be smart enough to know that if the array bound is a

Appreciate any ideas about what might be happening with these pages in IE5.2 Mac. In summary the 2nd paragraph or list item is indenting to the right. paragraphs of list items after the 2nd don't indent further, they just stay in line with the 2nd. Also seems to be affecting headings (h2 etc) and images. Seems to be a problem specific to this browser.

Some posters have been critical of the lack of formatting in some posts. Pleae be aware that posting through the Google group's web interface removes *all* leading white space - tabs, spaces, the lot. It also wraps at very short line lengths, making it something of a chore to use. Please allow some leeway for those posting via the web interface, for some there is no option.

Sometime ago on the comp.lang.c, I saw a teacher's post asking why C compilers produce so many error messages as soon as a closing bracket is missing. The response was simply because the compiler can't tell where a bracket is missing.... a few weeks have past, I requested a feature for the delphi ide/editor "automatic identation of code in begin/end statements etc" and today when I woke up I suddenly released a very simple solution for this...

Hi group, I want to indent existing XML files so they are more readable (at least to me). At this moment I'm looking at the XML files OpenOffice.org's Writer application produces in it's zipped "SXW" format (and they're one line, probably to save space, which I find hard to read). At first I thought I was going to do it with sed/awk or something like that, but then I remembered the xsl:output element with the indent attribute of XSL and...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
