Item Description

Align the first word of clause

Align keywords to the left or right margin of the first word of a statement section (for example, SELECT). The To left with indent option aligns all keywords except for WITH, UNION, and INTERSECT along the left margin with the indent.

To left	To left with indent	To right

Place clause elements on Move clause elements to a new line (New line) or leave them on the same line (Same line ).

Place comma

Move a comma (,) to the beginning (To begin) or to the end (To end) of a code line.

The Auto option analyzes the surrounding context and calculates the most suitable place for a comma. For example, you have three occurrences of a comma: two commas go at the beginning, one comma is at the end. The Auto option will move the third occurrence of the comma to the beginning. This option works only if you have more than three cases in a single context. Otherwise, commas are left as is.

If you want to disable a new line after the comma when the To begin option is enabled, clear the Line breaks checkbox on the Wrapping tab.
