[DevExpress Support Team: CLONED FROM T726615: Smart semicolon not working in 18.2.8]
George, I have had the problem too, but checking the screencast I found the reason to the problem!
- I used the wizard to enable smart semicolon and - boom - it did NOT work!
- Then I checked the screencast and looked into Options > Editor > C# > Formatting > Smart Semicolon and found that the setting was disabled - even I had enabled it in the Wizard!!
- Enabling it in Options did enable smart colon.
Hlyn, thank you for your findings. I was able to reproduce the issue with the wizard not keeping the user choice. We will fix it soon.
