Hi people.
I was wondering is there any solution for breaking a long line of code into multiple lines?
For example I have this:

XML

<Grid x:Name="MyGrid" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" VerticalAlignment="Stretch" Width="Auto" Height="Auto"/>

How can I break lines and have this:

XML

<Grid x:Name="MyGrid"
      HorizontalAlignment="Stretch"
      VerticalAlignment="Stretch"
      Width="Auto"
      Height="Auto"/>

I know that I can do it with hand by hitting Enter. I am looking for an immediate way by the system.

What I have tried:

I searched on internet a lot, but I didn't find any idea.

Solution 1

Open up the Tools menu and select Options. Look for Text Editor, inside this, there is a XAML option. Under the XAML option, look for Formatting. This has a Spacing entry, select Position each attribute on a separate line.
