Reproduce behavior of tabs but for spaces

[TheBabu]

When my file is using tabs I get an output that looks like this:

Which is the expected behavior. However, when I try to use spaces, by replacing each tab with 4 spaces.
I get an output like this:

Only when my cursor is in the scope, does the bar actually come up. I was expecting the behavior to be the same as when my file had tabs. I looked in the docs and I noticed the hooks.builtin.hide_first_space_indent_level but not sure how to utilize it work if it can actually help.

Any help is appreciated!

The 0 level indentation line shows up for spaces by default as well. If it doesn't, it's caused by something in your config.

I see, I am using NVChad and they have some options set themselves. How can I force to show the indentation line for spaces to rule that possibility out? Are there any other options that could have this behavior?

[lukas-reineke]

There is no option for this, only the hook hooks.builtin.hide_first_space_indent_level.

You'll need to look into the NVChad codebase and debug this yourself.

Got it, I'll ask the NVChad folks. Closing the discussion.
