Issues with code formatting

453 posts

my pretty print is acting much differently than it used to. it seems to be breaking every statement into a separate line. at some point, i remember being able to adjust this via some system settings, but i am not finding that anymore. is this called something different now, or am i just not understanding how it works?

thanks!

Hi,

what version are you using? I see it in the settings under Code Browsing > Pretty Printing.

In 4.0 these settings have apparently been moved to Settings browser -> Code Browsing -> Pretty Printing.

BTW two questions:
1. are these only applied if you click "format" from a source pane's context menu or is there another way (e.g. automatically on method save)?
2. Is there a way to view the source pretty-printed without dirtying the source? I feel like there used to be an obvious option... maybe in the old browser?

Thanks.

Cheers,
Sean

There is shortcut (ctrl+shift+f on linux, couple people mentioned it being broken on Mac).

There was some discussion about it being formatted when writing, but that has yet to be thought through and implemented (afaik).

You could probably feed the source to RBConfigurableFormatter (or whatever the object name is), however I'm not aware of any pretty viewer.
