Setting the Tab Width for the Script Editors
InstallShield 2022
InstallShield lets you specify the width of tabs in the script editor in various views (for example, the InstallScript view and the SQL Scripts view).
Tip:Note that the script editor properties are global per-user settings that affect all InstallShield script editors. For example, the same tab setting is used for all script editors. If you change the setting in the SQL Scripts view, the settings are also changed in the InstallScript view the next time that the InstallScript is reloaded in that view.
To specify the width that InstallShield should use for tabs that are entered in the script editors:
| 1. | Right-click in the script editor pane and click Properties. The Script Editor Properties dialog box opens. |
| 2. | In the Tab width setting, enter the width—as a multiple of the character space size—that you want for tabs in your scripts. The default value is 4. |
| 3. | Click OK. The Script Editor Properties dialog box closes. |
InstallShield adjusts the widths of the tabs in your script as needed.
