Automatic Formatting and Indentation Adjustment stopped working

 

my understanding that, within tools -> options, there's set of options specific formatting based on conditions, such "automatically format completed statement on ;". however, strange reason, ide seems ignoring of these settings.

 

for example, have boolean variable named somebool, , try type out following:

code snippet

if( somebool) {

//do something

}

 

 

 

the ide used format like:

code snippet

if (somebool)

{

//do something

}

 

 

 

all upon making closing brace, automatic formatting not happen anymore. yet options in formatting field under c# in tools -> options indicate should case. despite proper settings being in place, nothing gets formatted @ all. same problem persists should covered "automatically format completed statement on ;" , "adjust indentation on paste." checked settings in collapsed formatting field. none of them checked differently or in manner produce problem.

 

i puzzled how complete disregard settings occurred in first place, let alone how fix it. reinstalling visual c# nothing, nor does deleting settings located in c:\documents , settings\user account\my documents\visual studio 2005\settings\c# express. problem occurs no matter project i'm on, in addition new ones.

 

i'd appreciate on perplexing problem.

 

i have never come across such behaviour,  have resharper installed?

 

settings of resharper can override standard visual studio ones. if have installed @ resharper options.

 

i haev noted code doesn't auto format when there syntax errors. fixing syntax errors , deleting bracket typing again auto formats you.
