Priority is changed to P4 (normal).

Only changed version to Development.

We would need to have an additional flag for whether the user wants either 

{ method()

or

{
    method();

Until that the indent engine should keep the "{ method()" on the same line if 
they were originally on the same line and vice versa.
The first bug here is that the { is not put onto the next line. I assume 
the 'Add newline before brace' was turned on.
The second bug is that "{method()" be indented like "{   method()" if indent 4 
is used.

It works slightly better now - it doesn't do backindent:
Input:
  someMethod1();
  someMethod2();{someMethod3(); someMethod4();}

Output is:
  someMethod1();
  someMethod2();{someMethod3(); someMethod4();}

If add newline before brace is turned on, it indents:
Input:
  someMethod1();
  someMethod2();{someMethod3(); someMethod4();}

Output is:
  someMethod1();
  someMethod2();
  {someMethod3(); someMethod4();}

Version: 'Dev' -> 3.2

I'm moving this issue back to the Dev and changing the type to ENHANCEMENT. It 
will be implemented in next version.

Target milestone -> 3.3

Re-assigning issues back to the bugs@editor.netbeans.org

Changing the state of the issue to ASSIGNED, because it was cover in 
Requirements document at http://editor.netbeans.org/doc/Requirements.html

Target milestone -> 3.3.1.

Set target milestone to TBD

Set target milestone to TBD

Changing subcomponent to formatting.

This old bug may not be relevant anymore. If you can still reproduce it in 8.2 development builds please reopen this issue.

Thanks for your cooperation,
