Auto-Indent issues, very frustrating, likely on my end

[samfisherirl]

Unsure all of the potential variable for indent to have issues.

No other extensions for ahk, only ahkv2lsp

I have enabled Editor onEdit formatting support.

Situation: When I write a function myfunction() I add the open Bracket { and press ENTER. The moment I press enter is where the issue occurs. All examples below will share where my CURSOR ends up, and how the page formats.

In a nut shell: I cant get the cursor and brackets to end where we all generally expect them to.

ideal

;cursor denoted by (~) 

myFunction(){
    ~
}

;or

myFunction()
{
    ~
}

broken formatting

Right now Im getting this:

myFunction(){
~}

when I add editorFormat settings it indents but doesnt linebreak after bracket

myFunction(){
    ~}

all cases require at least a few steps to return back to coding and arent a click away. makes me want to pull my hair out but its likely my fault. Here are my custom settings in vscode incase needed.

update: I've tested on a new install, it appears some setting is conflicting. Unsure what it is,

[thqby]

https://github.com/thqby/vscode-autohotkey2-lsp#codeformat set editor.formatOnType and brace_style property of AutoHotkey2.FormatOptions.

[GroggyOtter]

Try adding editor.autoIndent to your settings. These are some of my ahk2 settings:

"[ahk2]":
{
    // Aligns cursor with if statment when enter is pressed
    "editor.autoIndent": "brackets",
    // Always search/replace in a selection if one is made
    "editor.find.autoFindInSelection": "always",
    // Prevents closing brace while in strings (usually)
    "editor.autoClosingBrackets": "beforeWhitespace",
    // Prevents second quotation mark while in strings (usually)
    "editor.autoClosingQuotes": "beforeWhitespace"
},

[thqby]

editor.autoIndent only takes effect on indentationRules defined in the ahk2.configuration.json file, but there are limitations.

[wilkster]

Assuming you have the auto-closing Bracket enabled (and the cursor is in between them after entering {, i.e. {|}, try using Shift-Enter to split the line. It should move your cursor down and indent it with the bracket on the third line. If not, it may be some other setting.
