I *love* Visual Assist X, and recognize what it's doing (parsing and formatting) is incredibly difficult.

WISH: Proper indenting of relational parens across lines.

Explanation: Very tricky conditional expressions need to be broken out so it is "obvious" how they are aggregated. The following construct is used commonly in our code:

Example:

(The following example does not currently indent properly, as the closing parens are not adjusted to below the opening parens)(Visual Assist X 10.6.1856.0 built 2011.08.24):

void foo(void)
{
  if(
      (
        (a == b)
        ||
        (c != d)
      )
      &&
      (e == f)
    )
  {
    foo2();
  }
}

Unfortunately VA does not do code formatting its self, we simply ask the IDE to do the code formatting, and rely on your IDE settings for this. This FAQ entry links to a couple of different code formatting tools that you might want to look into:
