Hi,
I have the "Automatically indent lines" option set in the Eclipse preferences under "IDL / Editor".
However, this option breaks copying and pasting code. When I copy a section of code and paste it somewhere else, the indentation of the code is completely different, presumably due to the "automatic" indentation.
This is very inconvenient. Is there a way to turn off the automatic formatting when pasting code, which is presumably already formatted according to the coder's wishes?
thanks
Mark

I also don't like this and I don't like deactivating "Automatically indent lines", so I'm using this workaround:
when pasting, select some text (empty line will do) and the indentation is not changed when pasting.
So I always enter an empty line, select it and then paste. Not ideal, but works.
Let me know if you find a better solution!
Cheers,
Helder
