Object initializer block indented one more level that in plain .cs file

[vsfeedback]

This issue has been moved from a ticket on Developer Community.

There is very often wrong automatic indentation in C# code in razor files. If I open up an initializer like so :

AFunction(new Something()
{
    Wow = "amazing"
});

It very often ends up that way :

AFunction(new Something()
    {
        Wow = "amazing"
    });

This only happens in razor files.

Note: The formatting issue here is a difference between Roslyn and Razor, but it is worth noting it is stable, unlike previous issues in this area, where repeated formats would cause constant changes.

This is a massive pain for me as I use automatic formatting when typing. I have to disable it but it then means I cant use the feature within other language files eg .cs

It's been over a year. Shouldn't it be easy to fix this issue?

[davidwengier]

If it was easy, I would have fixed it, I promise!

@davidwengier Thanks for the update on this, will this be available to try out in the next VS preview and is there a release timeframe on it?

[davidwengier]

@KieranDevvs It will be available in the first preview after 17.13 is fully released. Sorry, I can't share dates.

It's currently behind a feature flag, but we're working on getting it enabled for everyone, so it will be opt-out, as we're pretty confident there won't be regressions, but sadly the Razor usage in VS Preview versions is pretty low.
