java - In NetBeans IDE 6.9.1, can I remove the auto-correct-like functions? -

yes, know sounds very vague, begin typing program: public class programname , hit return key insert { @ far left. program automatically makes tab over. additionally, when hit { key, insertion point goes down line, , snaps left side without tab-space. looks this:

import java.text.*; public class program18  { 

this annoying, because personal habit arrange code blocks this:

import java.text.* public class program18 {     //statements go here } 

and netbeans kills "flow" when need stop , correct spacing issues. occasionally, netbeans arranges brackets this:

public static void methodname()     {     //statements here         } 

that sets off ocd.

is there way prevent this?

the formatting settings in tools : options dialog on java : formatting tab. unfortunately, don't see way pick standard set of rules list, you'll need fix them hand.

btw, latest version of netbeans 7.3. ask network administrator upgrade version decade.
