Description Mark Macdonald CLA 2014-05-20 14:11:13 EDT 
1. Create a file named 'test.txt'
2. Enable "Show Tabs" and "Show Spaces" in the Editor settings

Tabs and spaces are not shown. 

This problem also occurs when a file has an unknown content type (for example, rename your 'test.txt' file to 'test.fksjksfj')
