Were do you expect the config for the ctrl-i indent to come from?

I don't know. There are so many settings all over the config window.
If none is clearly showing that it has to do with Ctrl+I/U then I don't know it. And it's especially confusing when I see that Ctrl+I/U indents by 2 columns
It would be nice to show the key combo, yes. But it needs to be done dynamically as it may change. There could also be a link to set the combo....

You may wihs to add that as a reminder to mantis (as I am not going to do it now...)

but none of the setting is set to 2.
Maybe worth showing the tabs including the translated width? But that may be confusing too.
1 (equals 2 spaces)
2 (equals 4 spaces)
3 (equals 6 spaces)


If "Tab indents blocks" is a setting independent from the two following numbers then it should not prepend it. This looks as if these settings only apply if "Tab indents blocks" is checked.
Well they are not independend. But they are not sub-settings either


I would move the "Tab indents blocks" below the two settings because otherwise these two settings "Block indent (spaces)" and "Block indent (tabs)" suggest that they are related to "Tab indents blocks".

Also, I would use a common heading for both settings and would put both to the left as in:
I'll need to see how much space there is. Moving them to a new page would irritate even more people (because eweryone who knows them, expects them there)

Having the second config so far to the right looks as if has nothing to do with the left side.
It looks more as if all settings are put in two columns.

Yes, there are 2 columns.
And the space must be there, because translations may need it
