Menu
In Notepad++ I have set "replace tab with 2 spaces".
When coding in Python I copy-pasted some code from the web and it appeared indented correctly. But running the code resulted in indentation errors, which I solved in the end by removing all "visible" spaces at line beginnings and inserting the same amount of spaces again.
Could it be possible that Scintilla based Notepad++ does not show all special characters, but displays them as spaces? Is there a setting to fix this?

Pressing " Ctrl+Shift+W " (or the assigned keyboard shortcut) will now invoke the " View | Editor | Hidden Characters " main menu option.
Click Start, point to Settings, click Control Panel, and then click Add/Remove Programs. Click the Windows Setup tab. Click System Tools (click the words, not the check box), and then click Details. Click to select the Character Map check box, click OK, and then click OK.
Inserting ASCII characters To insert an ASCII character, press and hold down ALT while typing the character code. For example, to insert the degree (º) symbol, press and hold down ALT while typing 0176 on the numeric keypad. You must use the numeric keypad to type the numbers, and not the keyboard.
Yes, it does. The way to enable this depends on your version of Notepad++. On newer versions you can use:
Menu View → Show Symbol → *Show All Characters`
or
Menu View → Show Symbol → Show White Space and TAB
(Thanks to bers' comment and bkaid's answers below for these updated locations.)
On older versions you can look for:
Menu View → Show all characters
or
Menu View → Show White Space and TAB
