No replies. I was trying to think positive: "Borland wouldn't purposefully hobble the editor for their paying customers - it must be a bug." But apparently, they have. This is quite annoying. I paid almost $400 for the software. No Enterprise or SQL tools, sure - that's fair enough - gotta pay the really big bucks for that. But dang it, the editor should work and be fully functional. It seems reasonable functionality for the Professional-level product. I'm really disappointed.

I am completely in agreement with you that this should be an SE feature and not an enterprise feature. However, there is a workaround (although it is a tad painful) in order to get this to be what you want. First, you want to modify the formatting files that you can find in your .jbuilder8 directory (mine was at c:Documents and Settingsmyaccount.jbuilder8formatting) and open up the 4 ".codestyle" files. You can find a lot of the formatting settings that you might want to change. Just read through them to find the ones you don't like...they're fairly obvious what they do. Unfortunately, that's not quite enough. That just sets up how JBuilder handles some of the code creations (ie auto try/catch statements). You also have to modify your .jpx file that is created when you create a new project. Simply take the lines you want from the ".codestyle" file and paste it into the .jpx file. For example, I use the following additional lines when I modify the .jpx files for my projects: <property category="javaFormatting" name="EventStyle" value="0"/> <property category="javaFormatting" name="classBraceNextLine" value="1"/> <property category="javaFormatting" name="methodBraceNextLine" value="1"/> <property category="javaFormatting" name="otherBraceNextLine" value="1"/> which basically does nothing more than drop opening braces to a new line (I personally have a lot of trouble reading the other style). If you change these files you should get the results you want. Hope that helps.
