could you please tell me a way to remove the default shortcut of "tab" key form shifting between blocks , its annoying for python coding as indentation is all we have to do with.

The color themes are absolutely bonkers to me. I would have preferred to have it themed based on an IDE that I use. For example, IDLE or Sublime Text color schemes. Other than that, to everyone one complaining about the app. Ya'll programmers too. Make a better mouse trap

Works with single-cell tables which haves the effect that Python indentation doesn't work. All pasted code becomes left-aligned, and you cannot use tab to indent. This makes Code Blocks essentially unusuable.

You have to use four spaces instead of tabs like a psychopath, otherwise seems good

Does its job great! Just one feature that I would like to suggest (if that's technically possible) is the "preview", so you don't have to click "Format" every time you play with themes. The rest is awesome, thanks for the extension!

Great! Thanks for making it free!! A Small Suggestion would be to automatically preview the code by default when opening it instead of clicking preview everytime when the extension is called.
