Format and indent the document on open
Hi there, really like this option - saves me a lot of Shift+Ctrl+P presses - but have a problem that this marks all files as dirty and after saving they will be displayed "changed" when committing the results to our VCS. Is there a way to work around this or do I have to disable that option?

Hi Franz-Josef, Well, the file is actually changed by the format and indent, so if you save it and it is different you should see that, no? One option may is to batch format and indent your files and commit them that way, so there will be no further changes when you format and indent them. Setting formatting options at project level will help anyone opening the same files but using the same project to have the same formatting.

Hi Franz-Josef and George,
Setting formatting options at project level will help anyone opening the same files but using the same project to have the same formatting.
I can't endorse George's advice strongly enough - to set formatting options (line length, indent length, and XML formatting rules) at the project level. Ever since I discovered this technique and moved my team's project file into version control, this problem of one person's format & indent changing the whole file after another person's commit went away. (Our project file also stores validation scenarios and a suite of external tools that we can call from oXygen; see https://github.com/HistoryAtState/hsg-project/wiki/setup#get-hsg-project.) Also, we typically separate commits into two types - first, a substantive commits, followed by a format & indent commit. This allows everyone to see exactly what we intended to change, vs. the resulting formatting-only changes. Joe On Tue, Nov 10, 2020 at 3:26 AM George Bina <george@oxygenxml.com> wrote:

Hi George and Joe, indeed I did the batch formatting and indenting and set the pretty printing at project level. That caused one HUGE commit of 2.500+ topics to our SVN, but since than everything works for the whole project team. Thank you for letting me know about this function!
