Fix Tab Size

This is a plugin for Obsidian that fixes tab size according to the settings.

As reported on the forum:

Obsidian has setting for tab size:

But Obsidian partially ignores this setting and always inserts 4 spaces when you press Tab button in the editor, if you have setting Indent using tabs disabled.

This plugin fixes the editor tab size making it to match Indent visual width setting.
