Have you tried resetting defaults in the editor font & color settings
dialog?
Does this happen only in one workspace, or in all workspaces (e.g., if you
create a brand new workspace does the same thing happen)?

Can you post a screenshot somewhere for us to see?

Does the same thing happen if you disable folding in the preferences?
Also, what platform are you on and what Eclipse version?

What OS?
I think this has got to be something about your window manager settings,
so knowing what OS (and window manager / GUI toolkit if on Linux) might
give some clues.

I forget if you've already looked into this, but...
If you go to Preferences > Java > Editor > Syntax Coloring, do you see
the same kind of display Strings (under the Java branch of the tree
there)? There is a line of code in the Preview pane that reads:
@SuppressWarnings(value="all")
Does that line look the same as in your Java editor? Can you make
adjustments to those settings to get things looking better?

The formatter does not automatically re-format all your code, so to see
its affect you'd have to explicitly do that (right-click on a project or
package or class and choose Source > Format).
But as you say that is only a work-around (replacing tabs with spaces).
At this point I still think this is related to your window manager
settings. My last suggestion is to file a bug report that includes all
the details of your system (OS and version, window manager and version,
Eclipse version, JVM version) and attach the screenshot above
(http://www.unpluggedsystems.com/images/preview.gif) as well as the ones
you sent earlier of your actual code.
A bug report is the real way to get an Eclipse developer's attention.

Hope this helps,
Eric
