Description ptone 2009-08-04 17:08:06 UTC 
when in an indented python code block ie:

def foo():
    print "b<cursor>ar"

with the cursor at the end of the line, a return will preserve indent level as expected.

with the cursor in the middle of the line, invoking the "Start New Line" keyboard shortcut starts a new line without splitting the current line, but places the 
cursor at column 1 instead of preserving the indent level

Not sure it is still relevant with the current version. Closing this as old bug. If this is still a thing, please reopen and accept my apologies.

Thanks for your evaluation Julien. Reporter, if you think your issue is still valid and needs to be addressed, don't hesitate to reopen it with additional information. Closing for now.
