Description Michel Graciano 2011-12-13 20:03:45 UTC 
[ BUILD # : 201112030901 ]
[ JDK VERSION : 1.7.1 ]

After a merge the project formatting settings are not updated. I added a
<property name="enableCommentFormatting" value="false"/> entry after a CVS
merge but the settings were not updated and I needed to restart the IDE.
Comment 1 Jesse Glick 2011-12-13 21:15:24 UTC 
I do not recognize this metadata syntax. What kind of project are you using? Steps to reproduce?
Comment 2 Michel Graciano 2011-12-13 23:25:07 UTC 
I am using a Free form project, and this property is defined when I disable the comments formatting, via project popup > Properties > Formatting, for Java language and Comments category. When I change by UI, the setting is loaded and the sources are formatted correctly, but when I edit the project.xml file by hand, it is not loaded and the file is not formatted as expected. I will attache my project.xml file soon.

Sample project.xml

You can see the metadata I talked about at line 305.
Comment 4 Tomas Danek 2012-10-29 10:40:36 UTC 
somewhat reproducible; changes made in project.xml like
<property name="enableCommentFormatting" value="true"/>
turned to
<property name="enableCommentFormatting" value="false"/>
is not reflected in UI.

This old bug may not be relevant anymore. If you can still reproduce it in 8.2 development builds please reopen this issue.

Thanks for your cooperation,
