Hi there,
in the days of yore you had 3 check marks for clang-format (still visible here
https://doc.qt.io/qtcreator/images/qtcreator-code-style-clang-format.png).
* Format instead of indenting
* Format while typing
* Format edited code on file save
Nowadays the UI is gone, and at least option 2 is gone
(https://codereview.qt-project.org/c/qt-creator/qt-creator/+/411513) I asked on
why, but no answer yet. There was no reason or justification given, it was just
removed. And it seems it formats now on saving, something I don't want, I can't
turn it off anymore.
If I look into the changelog the only thing there is:
* clang-format
* Simplified options dialog
So I ask at least for some reasons or arguments why the functionality was
removed, but better to restore the options. I don't want to maintain a fork.
King regards,
Björn.
