Visual Studio Code: format is not using indent settings

When using the Format Code command in Visual Studio Code, it is not honoring my indent settings ("editor.tabSize": 2). It is using a tab size of 4 instead. Any ideas why this is happening?

Thanks!

Solution 1:

The number of spaces to use for formatting is taken from a different location. I'm using version 1.0 and this is what I've done to fix it (I'm assuming your using spaces instead of tabs):

At the bottom of the editor on the right hand click "Spaces: #":

Then a menu will appear up top. Select "Indent Using Spaces":

Finally you can select by how many spaces you want your files to be indented.

The next time you format a file you should be able to get the spacing you configured.

Solution 2:

Visual Studio Code detects the current indentation per default and uses this - ignoring the .editorconfig

Set also "editor.detectIndentation" to false

(Files -> Preferences -> Settings)
