I am new to Komodo edit but I have searched and read numerous articles and help and can't understand why when I press the Tab key it moves over one space as if I press the Space Bar??

example: (in any other program on my PC when I press Tab I get 5 spaces which I will represent with underscores _)

Tab should = _____

and Space bar should = _

BUT!!

in Komodo 8.5:

Tab = _ and Space Bar = _

and no matter what settings I have changed it stays the same Indent settings, settings for this file, settings for each language (php or javascript)

am I missing something?

I found out it seems to be the opposite of what people are talking about, or what I took from what people are saying

Number of spaces per indent: 5 Width of each tab character: 1

when you first open Komodo its like 4 and 8 and I just could not get it to change I tried like 1 and 10, 5 and 10, 8 and 10 etc...

if you want the tab to work like in other programs, BIG NUMBER FIRST
