Indentation level of else:-type lines is not reduced #771
Description
Environment data
VS Code version:
1.20.0
c63189deaa8e620f650cc28792b8f5f3363f2c5b
x64
Python Extension version: 2018.1.0
Python Version: 3.6.3
OS and version: Ubuntu 2017.10 AMD64
Actual behavior
After typing enter at the end of a line such as else:, elif cond:, except:, finally:, the indentation level of that line is unchanged and the next line is auto-indented to the wrong level as well:
if cond:
do_stuff()
else:|
after typing enter, becomes
if cond:
do_stuff()
else:
|
Expected behavior
if cond:
do_stuff()
else:|
after typing enter (or : on atom if I remember correctly), should become
if cond:
do_stuff()
else:
|
Steps to reproduce:
- Use a construct as if-elif-else, try-except-else-finally.
Is this normal? I expect that this is a problem with my setup and not this extension given the simplicity of the issue, but my install is as standard as can be...

The caret is placed correctly, one level less than

OK, good to know this is currently expected behaviour.
Thank you for trying to tackle this!

Fixing this requires #1847 which is not a minor undertaking. So we expect to get to it eventually, but it might be a little while.

Was supposed to be fixed by #2724 .
