When I create a comment in Visual Studio 2017 inside a JavaScript file (.js) the automatic formatting of comments is different than how they are formatted when I am using C#. While a small issue, it would save some time in the long run to solve and figure out if this is possible in Visual Studio
In a C# file, when I type: /* and press enter, another asterisk is automatically created as well as a space before the asterisk, so they all are on the same line, as well as a space after the asterisk which is where my cursor ultimately ends up.
Example in C#:
/*
*
However, in JavaScript when I start a comment by typing /* and press enter the cursor simply moves to the next line. No spaces or asterisks are created.
Example in JavaScript:
/*
[Nothing is automatically created on this line after pressing enter.]
We are in the process of updating our JavaScript core libraries to use YUIDoc and will be adding a good deal of comments such as:
/**
* My JavaScript application
*
* @module myapp
*/
Having intellisense add the extra space and asterisk on enter would be a big time saver. I've reviewed the various settings in the Tools > Options > Text Editor and cannot seem to locate the difference between how VS handles .cs files verses .js files. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
