Not able to reproduce the issue in NetBeans IDE 8.2 (Build 201609300101).
Formatting is happening properly.Please find below the Json file used for the test
{
"name": "requirements.js",
"version": "1.0.0",
"keywords": ["util", "functional", "server", "client", "browser"],
"description": "A fluent API for enforcing design contracts with automatic message generation.",

"dependencies": {
},
"devDependencies": {

}
}
Request you to attach the json file where the bug is reproducible and also the steps to reproduce( if any)
Same NetBeans version, happens with your json example too. See my attachments for the JSON options, which I didn't change after updating from 8.1 to 8.2 Created attachment 164219 [details]

Wrapping option
Hi, Is the issue related to wrapping of Array items and Objects properties, i.e. with below wrapping option set to Always for all options, Source: Format changes json
{
"name": "requirements.js",
"version": "1.0.0",
"keywords": ["util", "functional", "server", "client", "browser"],
"description": "A fluent API for enforcing design contracts with automatic message generation.",
"author": "Gili",
"contributors": [
],
"dependencies": {"util": "ss", "functional": "ss"},
"devDependencies": {
"gulp": "^3.9.1"
}
}
to
{
"name": "requirements.js",
"version": "1.0.0",
"keywords": [
"util",
"functional",
"server",
"client",
"browser"
],
"description": "A fluent API for enforcing design contracts with automatic message generation.",

"dependencies": {

},
"devDependencies": {
"gulp": "^3.9.1"
}
}
This behavior seems to correct. As seen in the Tools: Options: Formatting: Preview, with Wrapping set to Always, the Object properties and Array items are added in new lines. Can you try change the respective wrapping option to Never in this case.
I know, that I didn't change it for months. But ok I tried it and set everything to never. Same problem here. This is package.json: https://pastebin.com/R59gKdPv as you can see, that the spaces are 2 and I expect 4. So when I change it to Never and have 4 (which is default for all my languages) the code looks like this again: https://pastebin.com/tVLs14cM and it has still 2 spaces for the indentation. I think I figured it out, the problem only happens with package.json and bower.json. When I reformat a locale file or a new created file named Tester.json, with the same data from the last comment, everything is fine.

Created attachment 162470 [details] jsonFormatting problam. Before I switched from 8.1 to 8.2, when I hit my shortcut to format the source inside a JSON file, which has only 2 spaces, everything was fine, it sets the spaces to 3 and did not so much other formatting stuff, if not needed. Now, as you can see in my screen capture, in NB 8.2 first it tooks very long time to format the JSON file and the format is broken as you can see. All options that I set are fine and untouched.
