Pydev indentation warning in Eclipse

Question

I am using PyDev perspective. I get a bad indentation warning in python files. I just copy code from somewhere else, I cannot make sure how much space others use... so how to automatically format that or how to erase that warning? It looks bad.

Answer 1

There is no 'automatic' way for that... But usually in this situation you can just do a find/replace from 2 spaces to 3 spaces (or whatever was the format you had to the expected format).

Sometimes rectangular editing is helpful there too (hint: use alt+shift+A to enter/leave rectangular editing mode).
