Code Style. JSPX

Use this page to configure formatting options for JSPX files. When you change these settings, the Preview pane shows how this will affect your code.

Tabs and Indents

Item

Description

Use tab character

Use the Tab key for indentation. When the checkbox is cleared, IntelliJ IDEA uses spaces instead of tabs.

Smart tabs

  • If this checkbox is selected, the indentation for nested code blocks will use tabs and spaces as needed, while alignment indentation will use only spaces.

  • If this checkbox is cleared, only tabs are used. This means that a group of spaces that fits the specified tab size is automatically replaced with a tab, which may result in breaking fine alignment.

The Smart tabs checkbox is available if the Use tab character option is enabled.

Tab size

In this field, specify the number of spaces included in a tab.

Indent

In this field, specify the number of spaces to be inserted for each indent level.

Continuation indent

Specify the indentation for lines that continue from the previous line, making it clear that they are part of the same statement or block of code. Continuation indents are used when a single statement is too long to fit on one line.

Wrapping

Use this tab to configure wrapping options.

Item

Description

Right Margin

Use these settings to specify a margin space required on the right side of an element. If you select Default option then a value of the right margin from the global settings will be used.

Wrap on typing

Use these settings settings to specify how the edited text is fitted in the specified Right margin. You can select one the following options:

  • Default: in this case IntelliJ IDEA uses the Wrap on typing option that is specified in the global settings.

  • Yes: in this case the value in the specified right margin is used.

  • No: in this case this option is switched off and a line can exceed the number that is specified in the right margin.
