Remove trailing whitespace not working

[TKasparek]

My C/C++ formatting profile has Remove trailing whitespace turned on but it does not seem to be working.

Making a change to and saving again did not clear it up either. Toggling End on the lines shows the whitespace is still there as well.

Anyone else noticing this?

The setting in the formatting profile only takes effect during beautification - so when you run a beautify manually Or, depending on your other setting, beautifies can also happen on things that are pasted, while you're typing, etc...  We have had bugs in the past where trailing spaces would not be trimmed for a beautify, and if that's the case here, we'd need a code snippet that reproduces it, as this sort of bug is very context specific.

If you just want trailing spaces to be removed when the file is saved, you'd need to go to the Options dialog, go to File Options -> Save, and change the "Strip trailing spaces" setting.

Ah, that would explain why my search for whitespace didn't find it. I went through and redid my entire config recently, must have missed copying that section. Thanks.
