Visual Studio Code is Having multiple problems

Unreal Courses Ask
#1

Context: I removed the CLang-Format extension as it was causing problems
image
This started causing the first problem + the second problem
After that, I reinstalled the Clang-Format extension but it did not solve anything.

The first problem: Whenever I chose to save the file either using (ctrl + s) or going to “File” and clicking “Save”
it does this thing where it kind of compacts it.

after saving

Problem 2: I have the VSCode Intellisense Fix installed but for some reason, it’s not working anymore (after the Clang-Format thing) as is apparent in the screenshots from the first problem (and yes I launched vs code from Unreal engine)

  1. That’s what clang-format does. Format on save is mostly likely enabled which will trigger formatting. The C/C++ extension already includes clang-format so you don’t actually need a separate extension.

    There are a bunch of settings for it, see
    Clang-Format Style Options — Clang 13 documentation
    Though a quick Google and you can find a configuration tailored for Unreal
    https://gist.github.com/intinig/9bba3a3faee80250b781bf916a4ab8b7
    You should just need to create a file called .clang-format within your Source folder and the C/C++ extension should pick it up.

  2. Have you enabled it in the settings? Could you show the output of it?

(I pasted https://gist.github.com/intinig/9bba3a3faee80250b781bf916a4ab8b7 in)

It still has the squiggles

#5

it shouldn’t have a file extension. It’s just .clang-format, no .txt.

Could you try getting the latest version of the Intellisense Fixes extension (just in case) and completely re-installing it.

bet
