.editorconfig ignore #region #endregion indent space positioning...

[XeonG]

No idea if this is the right place, can't find a setting specific to being able to have

#region blah

#endregion

just aligned at the start instead of being aligned with the indentation of the code it is inserted at, obviously it would be nice if sub regions could follow a indentation based on a region being within another region but most my code I just want all this #region #endregion to ignore the formatted indentation.

is there a setting for this or way to achieve it?

side note anyone know of a decent vscode addon for visually configuring .editorconfig like rider/vs2026 have built into there ide's? really surprised no bothered to make that just works for all languages outside of an specific language editor.

I'm a bot. Here are possible related and/or duplicate issues (I may be wrong):

• Options controlling the indentation of code #if and #region blocks should be provided. #12306
• Unable to outdent #region (and other preprocessor directives) #37575
• Add Option for #region to be on left or indented like labels are in options #58687
• Text editor option for preprocessor directives missing #58681

Because it's extremely low priority, and very high risk. The linked issues go into this more.

high risk from what, don't indent #region #endregion how have you sat on this for almost 10years!??

high risk from what

Breaking formatting, which is a breaking change for anyone upgrading .net.

Note: regions are preprocessor directives. So that means they can show up between any two tokens. So every possible pair of tokens in every node case must be validated to make sure it doesn't break.

how have you sat on this for almost 10years

see the linked issues. they discuss it. however, a core part, as mentioned above is that it's very low priority, and very high risk. Not a single existing piece of code can break.
