Title: Whitesmith indent settings
Post by: UnderDriven on July 02, 2014, 10:04:18 pm
Hello.  I'm new to CodeBlocks and I want to set up the editor for Whitesmith indenting (which demonstrates how long I've been writing code).  I've set this up on various editors/compilers in the past, but I've been fooling around with the CodeBlocks indenting options for way too long and I can't force the braces to be indented.  Can anyone tell me the options for indenting braces like this:

if (x)
   {
   y();
   }

...or at least a document which explains what the various indenting options are supposed to do?  Thanks...

I've only been using C::B for a short while, so don't put too much store in what I say (I'm using win XP) , but click
Settings / Editor, then down the left of screen, click the Source Formatter.  There are various styles in there, and a custom one, though I haven't figured out how to make it work.  Please let me know if you do.
I also found the Keyboard shortcuts very useful (a bit further down the left of screen)
