I've used NetBeans for developing Java applications for a couple decades now. In the code formatting options I had always configured the editor to format strings split by pressing Enter in the middle of them to put the plus-sign at the end of the original line and begin the continued line with a double-quote. However, with later versions of NetBeans (23, 25 and 28) I can no longer seem to find a setting that lets it format split strings this way. Instead, it puts the plus-sign at the beginning of the continued line. I have hundreds of thousands of lines of code formatted the "old" way and aim to keep any new code consistent with the existing code. However, this now takes a fair amount of manual fiddling every time I split a string. (I write a lot of embedded SQL code so I'm doing this a lot.) Is there any way to tease the newer versions of NetBeans into working the way I want them to? Or do I need to create a new feature request for this? Thank you.

Kevin
