Here are my editor preferences. I am not sure it all boils down to formatting/editor, but this was the only change I made.

Editor custom configuration
Comment 4 alainvitry 2016-01-11 13:21:24 UTC 
Removing custom preferences did not fix the issue. The bug prevents code formatting and macro expansion (fori -> for(int i....). 
Code sense works as expected
