Go to **Tools** &gt; **Options** &gt; **Text Editor** &gt; **C#** &gt; **Formatting** &gt; **New Lines**.

In recent version of Visual Studio (at least 2017):

**Tools** &gt; **Options** &gt; **Text Editor** &gt; **C#** &gt; **Code Style** &gt; **Formatting** &gt; **New Lines**

Then just uncheck every option you see there.

Tools &gt; Options

Check &quot;Show all settings&quot;

Text Editor &gt; C# &gt; Formatting &gt; New Lines

Uncheck the settings for where you want no extra newline added. Personally I always uncheck all items in this category.

Tools-&gt;Options-&gt;Text Editor-&gt;C/C++-&gt;Formatting-&gt;New Lines

change all values to 

&quot;Keep on the same line, but add a space before&quot;

then select a block and reformat with Ctrl + K, Ctrl + F

Looking at some code examples for HtmlHelpers, and I see declarations that look like:

    public static string HelperName(this HtmlHelper htmlHelper, ...more regular params )

I can&#39;t remember seeing this type of construct any where else - can someone explain the purpose of the &quot;this&quot;?  I thought that by declaring something public static meant that the class did not need to be instantiated - so what is &quot;this&quot; in this case?





&quot;this&quot; in function parameter

I really don&#39;t like this style of formatting:

    Class AwesomeClass
    {
        private static void AwesomeMethod()
        {
    
        }
    
    }

Can I make it format my code like this?

    Class AwesomeClass {

        private static void AwesomeMethod() {
    
        }
    }


How can I set Visual Studio to use K&amp;R style bracketing?

I really don't like this style of formatting:

I need for text like &quot;joe ($3,004.50)&quot; to be filtered down to 3004.50 but am terrible at regex and can&#39;t find a suitable solution.  So only numbers and periods should stay - everything else filtered.  I use C# and VS.net 2008 framework 3.5

Regex to remove all (non numeric OR period)

There is another class which inherits the SqlreaderBaseClass called DefaultSearch. Code is below

Is there a display formatter that will output decimals as these string representations in c# without doing any rounding?

    // decimal -&gt; string

    20 -&gt; 20
    20.00 -&gt; 20
    20.5 -&gt; 20.5
    20.5000 -&gt; 20.5
    20.125 -&gt; 20.125
    20.12500 -&gt; 20.125
    0.000 -&gt; 0

{0.#} will round, and using some Trim type function will not work with a bound numeric column in a grid.

I am new to Python&#39;s logging package and plan to use it for my project. I would like to customize the time format to my taste. Here is a short code I copied from a tutorial:


    import logging
    
    # create logger
    logger = logging.getLogger(&quot;logging_tryout2&quot;)
    logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
    
    # create console handler and set level to debug
    ch = logging.StreamHandler()
    ch.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
    
    # create formatter
    formatter = logging.Formatter(&quot;%(asctime)s;%(levelname)s;%(message)s&quot;)
    
    # add formatter to ch
    ch.setFormatter(formatter)
    
    # add ch to logger
    logger.addHandler(ch)
    
    # &quot;application&quot; code
    logger.debug(&quot;debug message&quot;)
    logger.info(&quot;info message&quot;)
    logger.warn(&quot;warn message&quot;)
    logger.error(&quot;error message&quot;)
    logger.critical(&quot;critical message&quot;)

And here is the output:

    2010-07-10 10:46:28,811;DEBUG;debug message
    2010-07-10 10:46:28,812;INFO;info message
    2010-07-10 10:46:28,812;WARNING;warn message
    2010-07-10 10:46:28,812;ERROR;error message
    2010-07-10 10:46:28,813;CRITICAL;critical message

I would like to shorten the time format to just: &#39;`2010-07-10 10:46:28`&#39;, dropping the mili-second suffix. I looked at the Formatter.formatTime, but confused. I appreciate your help to achieve my goal. Thank you.


How to Customize the time format for Python logging?

I have some fixed strings inside my `strings.xml`, something like:

    &lt;resources&gt;
    	&lt;string name=&quot;somestring&quot;&gt;
    		&lt;B&gt;Title&lt;/B&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;
    		Content
    	&lt;/string&gt;
    &lt;/resources&gt;

and in my layout I&#39;ve got a `TextView` which I&#39;d like to fill with the html-formatted string.

    &lt;TextView android:id=&quot;@+id/formattedtext&quot;
    android:layout_width=&quot;fill_parent&quot;
    android:layout_height=&quot;wrap_content&quot;
    android:text=&quot;@string/htmlstring&quot;/&gt;

if I do this, the content of `formattedtext` is just the content of `somestring` stripped of any html tags and thus unformatted.

I know that it is possible to set the formatted text programmatically with 

`.setText(Html.fromHtml(somestring));` 

because I use this in other parts of my program where it is working as expected.

To call this function I need an `Activity`, but at the moment my layout is just a simple more or less static view in plain XML and I&#39;d prefer to leave it that way, to save me from the overhead of creating an `Activity` just to set some text.

Am I overlooking something obvious? Is it not possible at all? Any help or workarounds welcome!

Edit: Just tried some things and it seems that HTML formatting in xml has some restraints: 

- tags must be written lowercase 

- some tags which are mentioned [here][1]  do not work, e.g. `&lt;br/&gt;` (it&#39;s possible to use `\n` instead)
