Project-dependent coding style Follow
(A feature presumably for next version). How about having project-dependant coding styles?
The problem is that we have to run multiple projects at a time, and coding style sometime vary a lot depending on the client's preferences. Surely, one of the previously created IDE-wide code styles can be switched each time I open another project, but that's pain.
What if a project properties provide selection of the coding style from those already stored via IDE settings?

I think what you're asking for is already there. Try Project Properties --> Miscellaneous. There is a "Use per-project coding style" option right there.

Indeed. Thanks, Tobin!
I've seen this feature, but I'm a little confused by it. If I choose a coding style for a project, is that selection only valid for that machine? It doesn't seem that the coding style definition is packaged with the project, which means a new developer working on the project would not get the coding style definition.
We generally try to enforce a coding style on a project, so it would make more sense to include project coding style with the project configuration files.
Has any suggestion been made regarding this same kind of feature for file templates... it seems to me that file templates on a project basis would have been a first thought, rather than an after thought..
