Forgot to mention that the option "Automatically reformat when completing code is NOT checked"

I've never seen a "feedback" work -- as far as I can tell, Apple QA is just lousy these days. As you observed, yours just got closed. I guess I'm just stuck with this issue. I wish there was an alternative to Xcode

I'm away from my office for a few days and I'll check when I get back but at one point I unchecked absolutely every option, including one that is called "Automatically reformat when completing code" By the way, a google search shows quite a few people reporting this issue. I posted my example in reddit after finding several mentions of the issue there. https://www.reddit.com/r/Xcode/comments/1dvnhn1 how_to_disable_automatic_indentation_for_code/

even abandon native coding if we have to. Hmm, I'd love to abandon Xcode, I've never loved it, but I'm not aware of any other tool that I can use to develop and compile (and sign) code for the Mac.

And I have absolutely no interest in that dated and horrible coding style! [quote='822001022, Etresoft, /thread/772118?answerId=822001022#822001022, /profile/Etresoft'] The key is having that opening brace on the previous line. Nothing else is allowed. [/quote]

I just updated to Xcode 16.3 and the indentation problem is solved!
