Default JSON formatter puts opening object bracket on same line as parent array bracket

[tinder-tannerbennett]

Type: Bug

Surely this is not the desired behavior. And if it is, there appears to be no way to change it?

When I format

{
    "views": {
        "tinder-studio": [{
            "id": "hello"
        }

    ]
    }
}

I get

{
    "views": {
        "tinder-studio": [
            {
                "id": "hello"
            }
        ]
    }
}

• make sure you are using the built-in JSON formatter
• make sure you have not enabled to keep new lines (json.format.keepLines: false)

Please share the example code.

Looks like it was another formatting extension getting in the way. I didn't know it was formatting the document because it doesn't refer to "JSON" in the extension's name.

Sorry, I'll close this ;(
