Under Text->Hard Wrap, there's an option to break lines after a certain number of characters, along with Paragraph indentation. Perhaps one of those is what you're looking for?

You may also want to look into the free tool HTML Tidy if you want it to correctly indent lines automatically for you.

Hey everyone.

I've been trying to create a block indent in my HTML document, but can't.  I have the appropriate options checked in prefs, but when I select a body of text, it only indents the first line.  How can I get it to indent the entire block?

I'm learning HTML5 and indenting blocks of text helps me to see the code easier.  For example: if I'm writing a paragraph within a section within an article: I want everything in that paragraph to line up under the indent of the <section> tag.  I am following a book tutorial and the guy who wrote it has this displayed beautifully.

Any suggestions?
