Can't find a way to make formatters put braces on the same line. The default formatter seems to completely ignore all the settings related to new lines.

Some people recommended C# FixFormat extension, but now it's deprecated and gone from the marketplace. I also found

Then create a file named .editorconfig in your project directory with the following content:

[*.cs]
csharp_new_line_before_open_brace = none

If the file already exists, modify or add the csharp_new_line_before_open_brace = none line in the block for [*.cs] files.

In order to not have linebreaks before else, catch and finally, also add these lines:

csharp_new_line_before_else = false
csharp_new_line_before_catch = false
csharp_new_line_before_finally = false

If you want to apply the settings in all your projects, you can either

• place the .editorconfig file in a common parent directory of your project directories or
• place the .editorconfig file in the home directory. In Windows, this is the directory under %HOMEPATH%.
