Interface IndentStrategy

public interface IndentStrategy

Defines whether or not some elements can be indented when a user selects a fragment of text and invokes "indent" action (normally by pressing [TAB]). The elements which are said to be unmovable (canIndent(int, int, PsiElement) returns false) do not change their indentation. This may be useful for cases like HEREDOC text handling.
