Code formatting breaks indentation

[biddster]

I'm having trouble with the code formatter. It's quite likely that it's another formatter I have installed within VSCode but I'm not sure how to debug.

I have 'format on save' enabled and upon save, all the indentation in my plantuml file is removed.

If I change the '.plantuml' and '.wdsd' file association to Text via settings.json then the formatting doesn't happen and the preview renders fine.

What's the best way for me to debug this?

What kind of indent you had and lost?

[biddster]

If we take a loop as the example, it's removing the loop inner block indentation. So every line gets aligned with the left margin.

Do you mean while loop? I tested and following codes formatted as expected.

@startuml
start
repeat
    :read data;
    :generate diagrams;
repeat while (more data?)
stop
@enduml

@startuml
start
while (data available?)
    :read data;
    :generate diagrams;
endwhile
stop
@enduml

Those examples work fine for me too.

If I do this:

@startuml example
loop each Item
    Item->Item: I should be indented
end
@enduml

...it gets reformatted to this when I save...

@startuml example
loop each Item
Item->Item: I should be indented
end
@enduml
