C# Code Formatting

bmccomb

Is there a way with LINQPad 5 to use/import my Visual Studio C# formatting? I personally like to have spacing between a lot of things, for instance:

Foo(1) would become Foo( 1 ), and void Foo(int x) would become void Foo( int x ).

I would love to have the same settings for LINQPad, but I don't see options for it. But ultimately it would be great if I could export my C# settings from VS and import them into LINQPad.

The only options at present are whether to insert a space before the parenthesis, and whether to put braces on the same or next line with types, methods and blocks.

Hi Joe,

Thanks for the reply. Do you have any plans (or think maybe it could be a good future enhancement) to add more formatting options and allow for importing settings from Visual Studio? I write a lot of code in LINQPad and would love to have it auto-format the code the same way my Visual Studio editor does!

BTW.... love the product. I use LINQPad all the time, and just recently convinced my place of employment to purchase a premium enterprise license. Keep up the great work!!

I have Insert space after method name false, but a lot of times completions that insert lambda templates also insert a space before the opening parenthesis of the call. Is this a bug?
