[Question] How to change format settings for C# code?

[ghost]

I would like to know how can I change format settings for brackets, prefer "this" and other options that I can change on Visual Studio.

The C# extension supports configuring formatting options in an .editorconfig file. You can see details at https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/fundamentals/code-analysis/code-style-rule-options?view=vs-2022. Here is the configuration for newline before brace. You can run dotnet new editorconfig to generate a good starter .editorconfig. This approach also has support inside Visual Studio as well as with the dotnet-format command line tool.

You can also put an omnisharp.json file under the same path with your solution file as well.

Alternatively you can use a single global omnisharp.json (I did not test this myself).

Thanks, I figured it out.

.editorconfig will always work. And we also can use generated Visual Studio .editorconfig.
