Bring "break" statement one tab back in Visual Studio - grweh3wrh - Jul 13, 2019

I know this is really stupid, but it really bothers me that the "break" keyword is tabbed one more than the "case" one:

Anyone know a plugin or something that could help me?

It wouldn't be right without it, because the colon serves as a type of bracket

i dont even understand why or what you even want but in you can actually join cases together that do the same thing:

case "Hello":
case "other Hello":
//do stuff
break;

in your case they are the same case so just write in once.
you can also merge a multiple cases together with the default case that is run whenever no other condition was met:

case "Hello":
//do stuff for hello
break;
default:
//do for every other
break;

//default can also be used as a fall through if you want to build up stuff you want to do. like a pipeline and in the switch you can choose where you want to enter:

case "do everything":
//stuff
case "some stuff but not everything":
//more stuff
default:
//this stuff is always run
break;

dont know if that answered your question but these are the common ways devs avoid to use multiple blocks or breaks

EDIT:
Sorry i got that completely wrong... but i do understand now what you mean ^^ and yes depending on your ide that is fixable :) im not sure but in vs i think i can remebmre that you are able to change intellisense and indentation options and preferences under the preferences tab... hope im not mistaken there :)

Do you want your break to act as case keyword?

I mean, you want this?

Code 
case "tsumino":

break;

than this?

Code 
case "tsumino":

     break;

break; is a statement and is not necessarily an end-marker of the case block in C#. For example:

PHP Code 


<?php 
switch (...)
{
   case 0:
      if (...) 
         break;
      // case block continues here.
      break;
} 

is valid.

If you want some kind of end marker of the case block, you could add a scope instead using braces. Lots of IDEs allow you to change the default brace layout. Keep in mind you will still need the break statement.

PHP Code 


<?php 
switch (...)
{
   case 1:
   {
      ...
      break;
   }
}

You can also write it like this if you want more readability or whatever (you know, each to their own)
