I can confirm this issue. It also happens with Netbeans 8.1 on Linux Mint 18.

This is an annoying issue for me because I prefer 8-char tabs for personal projects, but my employer requires me to work with 2 spaces for indentation. So I have tabs for global settings and spaces for work project settings. And especially since 2 spaces is way too little to clearly see what indentation depth you're on it's handy to have working indent guide lines.
