Hello Nicolas,

ok, thanks, I checked all that but could not find a setting that makes sense for me.

I do not understand why when pressing TAB being at point ^:

  - item

^

results in

  - item

    ^


but having


  - item
TEXT
^

and pressing TAB results in

  - item
  TEXT
  ^ 

How can I get the indentation same as with empty lines?
