What are you asking?  Are you asking how to
set the number of spaces a tab translates to
in the source code editor?  If so, for *existing
projects*, set Project Properties > Basic Formatting >
Tab size to the value you prefer.  Also set the same
value for tab size in the Java Formatting property page.
If you want to do this for all *new projects*, set the
same properties to the desired values in the Default
Project Properties dialog.
