Inspectopedia 2025.2 Help

Overridden property

Reports properties that are already defined in other sections.

For example:

[*.java] indent_size=4 [{*.java,*.js}] indent_size=2

The second section includes all *.java files too but it also redefines indent_size. As a result the value 2 will be used for files matching *.java.
