Bug 503243

SUMMARY


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create an XML file, e.g.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8">
2. Save it and re-open it, check that Extra - Mode is set to XML
3. Start typing XML code, e.g.
<foo>
<bar>
<two>
</two>
</bar>
</foo>

OBSERVED RESULT
Kate indents the newly added text as
<foo>
	<bar>
	<two>
	</two>
	</bar>
	</foo>


EXPECTED RESULT
In previous versions (in my case before upgrading from Kubuntu 22.04 to 24.04), Kate idented the new lines correctly as per XML standard as
<foo>
	<bar>
		<two>
		</two>
	</bar>
</foo>


SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Kubuntu 24.04
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.12
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.115.0
Qt Version: 5.15.13

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

The same issues shows when using Selection - Indent (was previously Extra - Auto-Indentation or something like that) on an un-idented text. The un-idented text is now idented to
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8">

<foo>
	<bar>
	<two>
</two>
</bar>
</foo>
instead of the expected
<foo>
	<bar>
		<two>
		</two>
	</bar>
</foo>

I also tried the most recent AppImage from https://cdn.kde.org/ci-builds/utilities/kate/master/linux/ (version 25.07.70) and it shows the same issue.
