Maybe you want to try that, too. I don't know why there are these > two buttons, either. Is simple but you must read the manual (I guess is there). The idea is the following: When you modify the options in this window you just modify the static variables of the editor class. These variables acts as default values and are copied to any new opened editor. So modifying these settings you don't modify the actual settings of the editors but the default values. When you choose the "To all" button the IDE sends a "Broadcast" to the editors and all the editors sets yours parameters according to these new values. I think it looks crazy because the IDE lacks one of the dialogs of the editor, that's the dialog to set the parameters of just 1 editor window. In the editor (used outside RHIDE) you can have Autoindent in one window and Intelligent C Indent in other so choosing "To all" isn't a good idea under this situation.
