Description Saurav Sengupta 2017-01-24 15:27:50 UTC

The default indentation mode (at least for the Normal mode) is not applied to new files, i.e., to files which are not (yet) saved and thus do not have an associated indentation mode.

The status for bug #142087 shows "resolved fixed" but that was for old versions of Kate and the same problem now occurs with Kate 16.04 on KDE SC 5.8.5.

To reproduce:
1. Set the default indentation mode in Kate to Normal.
2. Open a new document but do not save it.
3. Type a line with leading indentation.
4. Press Enter.
Result: The new line does not inherit the indentation of the preceding one, although the default indentation mode of Normal should make it do so.
