I like my object initializers to look like this:

new Point { Label = g.Key.Name, Claims = g };

When hit the semicolon key, they get reformatted like this:

new Point {Label = g.Key.Name, Claims = g};

Where is the option to stop my padding from being removed?

  • I don't care which way mine look, but StyleCop punches me in the teeth if they don't look the first way. **Hates StyleCop** – Keith Pinson Jun 12 '13 at 12:37
  • This also worked for the removing spaces R# adds after casting. This was causing a lot of churn in code files where R# code cleanup and VS Reformat Document were being used. – StingyJack Feb 23 '16 at 19:45

For R# 7, I can get this to vary by going to1

ReSharper | Options | Code Editing | C# | Formatting Style | Spaces

and toggling

Other | Within single-line initializer braces

the example for which is

int[] x = new int[] {0, 1, 2};

versus

int[] x = new int[] { 0, 1, 2 };

Although the example is of array initialization, it also appears to control object initialization.

1In R# 5, "Code Editing" was "Languages".

    Seems this option has been moved from 'Other' to 'Around Braces' – Gaute Løken Mar 27 '18 at 14:39

    Seems this option has been renamed: `Spaces | Around braces | Within single-line expression braces` Or add it directly to the .DotSettings file: `False` – pschlz Jul 15 '22 at 08:52

If you are using an .editorconfig file, you can control this behaviour by adding:

space_within_single_line_array_initializer_braces = true

See also the official resharper documentation on supported .editorconfig entries. These typically let you customize everything you could customize from the formatting styles menu for all of Jetbrains' IDEs.
