Get correct indentation in Resharper

Question

Right now resharper formats our code like this:

private readonly List<Folder> folders = new List<Folder>
                                        {
                                            new Folder()
                                        };

but I want it to look like this:

private readonly List<Folder> folders = new List<Folder>
{
    new Folder()
};

I've messed about withthe options loads, but can't seem to get them right. Can you help?

Answer 1

I had the same issue with anonymous delegates. The fix for anonymous delegate formatting is here:

I did finally find the way to fix this. The options for formatting anonymous methods are spread across two separate pages in ReSharper options: Braces Layout and Other. The “don’t indent a ridiculous amount” is on the Other page, and it’s called “Indent anonymous method body”. Turn it off, and set the brace option to “At end of line”, and you get something much nicer:

But i'm not sure about the instance declaration collection formatting i'm afraid. :(

Answer 2

I just had a fight with this today. Go to ReSharper\Options\Languages\C#\Formatting Style\Other

Scroll to the bottom of the list and uncheck "Indent array, object, and collection initializer block"

That did the trick for me.

Answer 3

I also had to uncheck ReSharper\Options\Languages\C#\Formatting Style\Other --> Align Multiline Constructs and uncheck "Array, object and collection initializer" along with the other answers provided here.
