Setting Fonts, Keyboard Commands, etc.

1) Whenever a new project is started, all of the font settings from a previous project are gone.  Is there a way to set all fonts so they don't change (as Visual Studio does)?

2) How do I set the tabs to be 2 spaces instead of 4?

3) How do I set the tabs to convert to spaces? ... hitting a tab jumps the appropriate spaces, but inserts spaces instead of a tab.

4) Ctrl-/ places a // in front of s line to make it a comment.  Is there a place I can add a keyboard command ... Ctrl-Shift-/ removes the //?

5) Where do I change the keyboard commands to match what is typically used in Visual Studio? ... F5 runs, F10 steps over, F11 steps into, etc.

    Global settings can be accessed at menu Window --> Preferences. If you type Editor or font in the top box you will jump to the relevant topics

    In the same menu above, type Text Editor in the search box. You will find the tab configuration there

    If you search for Editor in the search box and select the tab Appearance there is a box that configures the tab/spaces setting.

    If you type Keys in the search box you will find a list of existing shortcuts in Eclipse

    Same place as above.

    Hope this helps,

  • Good start.  Thanks.

    3) I don't see a tab labeled Appearance ... but I do see a link labeled Appearance.  When I select the link, the dialog box has the word Appearance at the top, but don't see and option for replacing tabs with spaces.
