@mandy-chessell @planetf1 I can work out how to get rid of the indentation issues:

• it looks fine on my mac - i,e the formatting of the module
• it comes through to git with strange indentation
• I installed xcode to see the hex, but it messed up git looking for plugins so uninstalled
• I pasted into text edit and manually put the right number of spaces in - making sure there are no tabs. But this is what you see.

It's caused by a mix of tabs and spaces.

For me - probably using the default for spaces/tabs, it shows up correctly aligned - whilst the web UI looks wrong.

However if enable preferences->editor->appearance->white space & select the options I can see some of the code (that was there before) uses tabs, whilst other code (yours) uses spaces.

My feeling would be to replace the tabs with spaces (intelliJ can also do this automatically)

Most of the code in that module already does use spaces but that segment had tabs introduced back in 2018
