Is it possible to change the options in Clion so that the variables are aligned like so:
This should be applied in structs and methods.

Err... your variables are not aligned. – axiac Feb 22 '16 at 10:12

@axiac yea that's a valid point, but you get the idea, let me try and get a better image in the meantime – dimitris93 Feb 22 '16 at 10:13

Oh, you're talking about source code formatting not alignment in memory layout, right? – 5gon12eder Feb 22 '16 at 10:16

@5gon12eder yes absolutely – dimitris93 Feb 22 '16 at 10:17

Yes.
Settings -> Editor -> Code Style -> C/C++ -> Wrapping and Braces -> Variable groups -> Align in columns
You can of course also use a custom formatting tool that does it as well.

Oh wow, thanks a lot, I didn't see that option being packed by 100 other options. – dimitris93 Feb 22 '16 at 10:21

I am sorry, is this possible to align the comments on the "right" as well ? so that the comments are aligned too ? have you seen that option ? – dimitris93 Feb 22 '16 at 10:22

Not sure if that is also possible. If not, you can also use an external tool for formatting, see: http://stackoverflow.com/q/34648255/620382 – Zulan Feb 22 '16 at 12:52

2This setting behaves weirdly if you also change the space insert from before to after in `*` declarations. Apparently the `*` is still chosen as alignment character. – villasv Jan 21 '17 at 16:56
