JavaScript formatting in Visual Studio 2010

Question

I want:

if (window.XMLHttpRequest)
{
       //do some
}

but after formatting I get:

if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {

}

how can I correct it?

Answer 1

• Tools -> Options
• Text Editor -> JScript -> Formatting
• Place open brace on new line for control blocks

Answer 2

This is probably not what you want, but I suggest keeping it as is.

It is also recommended by the Google Javascript Style Formatting Guide

Answer 3

In the menu:

Tools -> Options -> Text Editor -> JScript -> Formatting -> New Lines

However, I agree with epoch - it's probably better to just follow the style guide.
