Visual Studio/ReSharper code formatting - C#

Question

When creating a new type using the object initialiser syntax, Visual Studio automatically moves the braces to align with the type after the new keyword.

Like this

MyType myType = new MyType
                    {

                    };

However, I would prefer it not to do this and instead leave it like so

MyType myType = new MyType
{

};

Any ideas how to do this - I've been through all the Visual Studio formatting options and can't find one that is appropriate

Any ideas?

Answer 1

From my most popular answer here:

1. In Braces Layout , set Array and object initializer to At Next line (BSD Style) .
2. In Other , make sure that Continuous line indent multiplier is set to 1 .
3. In Other , make sure that Indent array, object and collection initializer block is unchecked .

You will have the style that you want!

Answer 2

You will find this in Resharper options. Go to ReSharper -> Options -> C# -> Formatting Style -> Braces Layout -> "Array And Object Initialization" . But I am not sure if ReSharper allows such formatting.
