How do I get the Intellij code autoformatter to keep an annotated field on one line?

Question

Whenever I run the IntelliJ autoformatter - it converts this:

@Autowired private CustomerDao customerDao;

into this:

@Autowired 
private CustomerDao customerDao;

How can I stop it from doing that?

Answer 1

Navigate to Preferences → Editor → Code Style → Java → Wrapping and Braces tab, then locate the section Field annotations and check the option Do not wrap after single annotation.

In IntelliJ v14:

could you add a text explaination too? The image can not be found anymore (404). Thanks! – Babettebabeuf

@crush sorry for that, it's the hoster issue, I'll try to make a new screenshot. – Acie

Answer 2

For me works well: Preferences → Editor → Code Style → Java → Wrapping and Braces → Method annotations → wrap always
