Was format {} option of Snippets intentionally removed on Chromium 114.0.5715.0?

[Benedikt Meurer]

Yes, the idea was to provide just the inline pretty printing for minified files.

Do you find value in being able to format snippets? If so, could you file a feature request on crbug.com please?

cheers,

Benedikt

Yes.

I've been using that feature for years now.

Chromium authors banned from from contributing there. Somebody else will have to file the feature request and shepherd it through.

Snippets panel is still there. 

I don't understand the decision to remove the capability to format the code pasted, dropped, or opened there.

This is what I've come up with so far https://github.com/guest271314/devtools_panel_code_formatter as a substitute.

[Benedikt Meurer]

The functionality was removed with https://crrev.com/c/4417396 as part of the removal of the legacy formatting (in favor of the inplace pretty printing).

But given that there's a good reason to keep the inplace formatting for Snippets, I'll revert that CL.

Thanks for the feedback!

cheers,

Benedikt
