如何为注释行应用缩进设置（IntelliJ IDEA / Android Studio）

Question

I certainly know how to use the line comment shortcut, ctrl + / , but for some reason the comment starts at the end of line.

If I start with this code:

if (something) {
    return 5;
}

And use the shortcut from IntelliJ, I end up with:

if (something) {
//    return 5;
}

But I expect things to look like this:

if (something)
    // return 5;
}

Is there any way to configure this in IntelliJ? I tried changing the code syntax rules for my target language, but it didn't change anything.

Answer 1

This setting can be changed in (Settings / Preferences -> Editor -> Code Style -> Java -> Code Generation)

Options:

• Line comment at first column.

• Block comment at first column.

It should work both for Android Studio and IntelliJ IDEA.
