Recently I need to setup Eclipse RCP 3.7 (Indigo) for indenting with tabs in XML-files. I've set Preferences → XML → XML Files → Editor → ◉ Indent using tabs, but visual constructor of plugin.xml generates space-indented xml whatever.

How can I do that - to force visual constructor of plugin.xml to generate tabs-indented XML-file?

Thank you for your advices and time.

This isn't possible. The XML files generated by the Plugin Development Environment (PDE) component of Eclipse are always generated with spaces and there is no configuration to change this.

PDE doesn't use the generic XML editor that you configured in the Preferences.
