Hello,
Is it possible to have the tab size be 2 spaces, but change it to look like 4 spaces?
Thanks!

What could be the possible outcome of this? It would confuse user and possibly ruin careful indentation of comments or docs.
Our coding stands call for two space indentation. I find it hard to read the code with 2 space tab size. I find it easier to read with 4 spaces. Though I see what you mean. It’s fine for leading indentation but code alignment would get messed up. Ugh. Guess I’ll have to contend with 2 space tab size.
Thanks

Hi Kyle,
You've probably thought of these ideas before, but maybe you haven't ¯_(ツ)_/¯.
Have you tried enabling "View" -> "Show invisible characters"?
What about using a different font? I like [Source Code Pro[1]](https://github.com/adobe-fonts/source-code-pro) but [there are a lot of choices[2]](http://hivelogic.com/articles/top-10-programming-fonts/).
How about "Show indent guides"?
There's also [this ancient post that enables a "indent guide"[3]](https://stackoverflow.com/a/17492004/1167956) in a completely different way. Speaking of this, @team friendly bump to make the "Show indent guides" smarter...

Hope that helps, Graham

Hi,
Those are some good solutions, but unfortunately I mainly have issue with how small two spaces look compared to four. Seeing whitespace characters and the indent guide will certainly help. But using a different font does give me an interesting idea to find a font with two-space ligatures that appear as four spaces.
Thanks!

Hey Graham,
Just wanted to follow up. I was able to edit the Microsoft’s cascadia-code font to add a double space ligature and it looks perfect. Thanks for giving me the idea.
See the attached screenshots ;)

Glad to hear it!
Ligatures are an interesting solve. I assume this appears when you have two spaces that aren't leading spaces, too, but maybe that'd help you catch issues too...
Thanks, Graham
