Script editor is not returning to the next line intelligently after pressing enter!

I really like the built-in MATLAB editor.

I think I might have pressed some sort of shortcut on the keyboard that disabled a smart feature in the editor.

You know when you press enter to go to the next line, the cursor goes to the correct position, i.e., indented properly in an if an statement of a for-loop, for example. I am not sure what I did. But now the cursor falls all the way to the left after pressing enter, just like a plane editor.

Does anyone know to reenable the smart-auto indentation feature? I looked at the preferences-editor menu, but no luck.

Many thanks, and I look forward to hearing from you guys.

You might have disabled smart indenting checkbox.

Thanks for the prompt response.

I checked the setting, and it was the same as your; yet the problem presisted.

I restarted MATLAB, and it worked fine after.

Thanks again.
