I am trying to adjust the width of tabs from Window -> Preferences -> General -> Editors -> Text Editors where there is a field for "Display Tab Width". But no matter what I enter there the size of indentations when I start a newline in a Java file is 4. Any ideas?

UNIX text editors prefer tab is 8 spaces, Windows text editors, and IDEs e.g. Eclipse treats tabs as 4 spaces.
You can rearrange the order of the view and editor tabs as you prefer in Eclipse. Just drag the tab(s) to the order you want.
Check the option " General > Editors > Text Editors > Insert spaces for tabs ": if unchecked, it will display tabs, not space.
Java files have a special place to edit this setting. You need to go to
Window -> Preferences -> Java -> Code Style -> Formatter
And edit the profile.
