smartIdent not customisable; conflicts with sourcefmt rules

The smart identation seems to conflict with the source formatter options that I set, which is irritating. Otherwise I have to set identation manually. both are not a very pleasant experience.

example:

I have set the source formatter (and I want to write the code like this, too) this:

if()

{

// ...

}

But the Editor -> General settings contain a "smart ident" option

which doesn't work exactly the way it should - I type the first line

and hit Enter, the newly added line is not indented one more space to

the right:

if()

|_ (blinking cursor here)

I want it to

1) automatically add the extra space, and add the {}s instead just

after I type first line and hit Enter:

if()

{

|_ (blinking cursor here)

}

OR

2) automatically ident when I hit Enter

if()

|_ (blinking cursor here)

So I can type { and type the block inside:

if()

{

|_ (blinking cursor here)

}
