How do I stop Intellij from automatically deleting spaces in .md files?

When writing documentation in a README.md file, IntelliJ automatically removes any spaces, which makes it really annoying to type any text. I can add spaces after writing a few words by moving the cursor to the end of the first word/beginning of the next word, and then adding a space, but this is really cumbersome.

My IntelliJ version is this:

IntelliJ IDEA 2022.3.2 (Ultimate Edition)

Build #IU-223.8617.56, built on January 26, 2023

Does someone know what setting I need to change to get rid of this behaviour?

Thanks!

Solution

  • I updated my IntelliJ and this issue no longer occurred.

    Current version is:

    IntelliJ IDEA 2023.1 (Ultimate Edition)

    Build #IU-231.8109.175, built on March 28, 2023

    Looking at the version number it seems they did a rollback?
