Formatting doesn't work

[zerwiport]

After calling reformat nothing happens. Does it require additional configuration or maybe it's not supported at all?

(Thank you for the great plugin)

see the

Is there any sending or returning regarding textdocument/formatting?

[zerwiport]

It's empty, but everything works besides formatting. Should I turn on tracing somehow?

Edit:
Found it

[zerwiport]

No textdocument/formatting in logs.

[CppCXY]

It might be that your input method or other software has occupied the Ctrl+Alt+L shortcut in the IDE. Try executing it via the command instead.

I tried Reformat Code and Reformat File. Still no result and no entries in logs regarding formatting.

[CppCXY]

Then I really have no way of knowing what happened, because the formatting request was not sent to the language server, so it can only be an issue on the plugin side. It works fine in my local test environment. I suggest creating a new empty project to keep it relatively clean, then creating a new empty Lua file, writing some random content, and trying to format it to see if anything happens.

Even in completely fresh project it doesn't work.

Could you share your versions?

You can also try installing other JetBrains IDEs, such as PyCharm, and see how it goes.

I tried in developer instance started from dev gradle plugin and it didn't work but! in Rider it works fine. I will investigate it further.

[zerwiport]

After loading the project into Rider, formatting one of files and reopening in IntelliJ it started working. It seems Rider resolved some residual broken configuration.

Thanks for your help!

Edit:
By default I'm using code styles in project when switched to stored in IDE (default) it started to work. Rider probably changed this configuration. It's reproduceable.
