Open/Close tag not indented same

Community Beginner ,
Oct 31, 2017 Oct 31, 2017

Using Dreamweaver CC, after entering an opening tag the closing tag is automatically inserted. After placing my cursor between the tags and pressing enter, the closing tag is indented instead of lining up with the opening tag position. Is there a way to change the behavior?

Personally I find HTML code indenting a waste of time and space.  Code errors can adversely effect browser rendering but indenting has no impact either way.

If indented code makes you happier, use Apply Source Formatting from your Common Toolbar.  Whatever settings you have defined in Tag Libraries will be applied to your source code.

I agree, but currently the code format need a lot of improvment and polish...
