Tab error inconsistent use of tabs and spaces (original) (raw)

Suddenly I started to get this error each time I insert a new line on my python3 code:

‘… xxxTabError inconsistent use of tabs and spaces line xxx …’

I tried switching indentation settings under ‘Preferences’ and ‘Current File Preferences’ including toggling on/off ‘Prefer tab chars over spaces’ and the problem persists.

Please advise.

Hi @Mario-Luna,

That looks like a syntax checker error. What syntax checker are you using? A screenshot of the IDE would be helpful, including the error and code.
