Zend Studio: Tab display value and indentation size

Question

Is it possible to set up the IDE so that the tab display value is 2 spaces, but the actual indentation size is 4 spaces?

I've tried setting the Displayed tab width to 2 under General -> Editors -> Text Editors

In PHP -> Code Style -> Formatter I have:

Tab policy: Spaces
Indentation size: 4

In JavaScript -> Code Style -> Formatter I have:

Tab policy: Spaces only
Indentation size: 4
Tab size: 2

I'd like it so that, when working in the IDE, indented code would appear as two spaces, ie:

function foo() 
{
..return 'Hello World!';
}

But the actual file would be indented with 4 spaces:

function foo() 
{
....return 'Hello World!';
}

Is it possible? Everything I've tried up to this point hasn't worked

Unfortunately you can't do this automatically Like the way u want. You have to make profiles to make your work easier. Change your project setting to 4 spaces profile before saving.
