Code-Formatierung für unangemessene 4-Platz-Einrückungen deaktivieren?
@outofthebox , du bist nicht die erste Person, die dieses Problem erlebt. Ich habe Reddit-Beiträge mit hunderten Upvotes beobachtet, in denen beschrieben wird, wie sehr manche Leute dies verabscheuen, und im CommonMark-Standard-Discourse-Forum gibt es einen Thread dazu. Ich habe einige davon online zusammengefasst:

#### Desire
As [I've poorly aforedescribed at `reddit.com/r/vscode` (to 5 upvot… es)](https://www.reddit.com/r/Markdown/comments/1g8t2xt/can_markdowns_indented_code_blocks_be_disabled_in/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button), I want a way to disable the conversion of a single tab or 2 spaces to a `<pre><code>`. Instead, I want it these to merely be ignored (as they are in other markup languages, like HTML).
#### Rationale
I author most of my markup in HTML, because it provides significantly more versatile and semantic markup capabilities. However, it has an (ultimately non-inherent, but in-practice) significant failure — `<code>` tags are not automatically syntax-highlighted by any parsers.
Markdown, being a superset of HTML, improves this perfectly. As an example, when I render the undermentioned in VS Code with the PowerShell extension installed, I see beautiful colours:
~~~MD
<tr>
<th>
Construction
</th>
<td>
```PS1
${'Status'} = [PSCustomObject]@{
'Non-Chronological' = 'Indeterminate';
'Chronological' = [PSCustomObject]@{
1 = @(
'Uncommenced',
'Commenced'
);
2 = @(
'Completed',
'Cancelled'
)
}
}
${'Person'} = [PSCustomObject]@{
3 = '';
1 = '';
2 = ''
}
```
</td>
</tr>
~~~
However, that's really difficult to read. It gets exponentially more difficult if, for example, you have nested tables with code blocks in each. At that stage, I basically have to re-indent and then de-indent each time I modify the markup. It's a dreadful workflow.
Instead, it should be the undermentioned:
~~~MD
<tr>
<th>
Construction
</th>
<td>
```PS1
${'Status'} = [PSCustomObject]@{
'Non-Chronological' = 'Indeterminate';
'Chronological' = [PSCustomObject]@{
1 = @(
'Uncommenced',
'Commenced'
);
2 = @(
'Completed',
'Cancelled'
)
}
}
${'Person'} = [PSCustomObject]@{
3 = '';
1 = '';
2 = ''
}
```
</td>
</tr>
~~~
However, all beneath the first `<td>` shall render in a `<pre><code>`.
This is, of course, a basic example, where the aforedescribed potential complexity is less evident. However, I can provide incredibly complex examples if necessary.
Summarily, having this implemented would completely change how I write my Markdown documents. I would finally be able to write the HTML within them in a readable manner, and have syntax-highlighted code blocks, without needing to deal with the indentation havoc that is `<pre>`.
#### Feasibility
Per https://github.com/11ty/eleventy/issues/2438#issuecomment-2464912554, this should be possible in VS Code, since `markdown-it` appears to be the parser that VS Code uses, and it supports the ability to disable indented code blocks.

<blockquote>
For years I’ve been using apps that “use Markdown” like Bear and Ulysses. So I would often tab underneath a header for typing because I visually like to indent different topics. Well, turns out that those apps were really using “Markdown flavors”. It was like Markdown lite.
So now that I’m using Obsidian that uses the full Markdown specs, when I try and indent underneath a header, I get a code block! That technically is correct, but I hate it! I can’t write the way I normally like to write.
I would love a simple switch that says something along the lines of “disable code blocks by indenting” or something to that effect. I would still be able to do a code block using the three ticks.

<blockquote>
The only input I found that works [...] requires:
1. Inner markdown body not indented at all
2. Blank line between first para and HTML
3. No blank line between second para and HTML
If there *is* a blank line between second para and the HTML, then the HTML gets parsed as an indented code block and breaks the HTML.

#### **Situation**
I often indent lists and put an empty line in between for visual distrinction.
#### **Problem**
Obsidian recognizes that as code and colors the line red.
#### **What I’m trying to do**
Turn off code blocks alltogether, or turn off the indent → code block function.

> Indentation is also used with lists (bullet and numbered), making it more confusing how to properly indent a block inside them. Fenced blocks provide a separate syntax, simplifying the markup for indenting a block inside a list.
