HTML Formating Customization

[Terry44]

In addition to being able to turn formating on and off it would be great to be able to customize how the html, css is formated so if I want formating I can tell pinegrow how I want the formating done and just let pg do it the way I want instead of me having to manually format the code.

More control over how things work so I can make pinegrow work how I work and not have to change my process to that of the developers way of thinking or their “common sense” approach. I want it to work MY way.

Alternatively being able to just shut that off is nice but… I like auto format just my way of formating.

Agreed the formatting of any kind needs to be turned off. Even Dream-Weaver does not do this.

Thank you for the reply, sadly it still changes things even after I did disable the Auto-format HTML Code, which I did do before posting to this forum, the two biggest things are changing the code blocks to lower case and the oddest thing is removing the ending HTML tags.
