Braces placement on new line not working

I have set braces placement to "next line" in all options for C/C++, but the open braces are still left at the end of the previous line. The code formatting example in the code style submenu displays the braces correctly, but when I'm writing code its not working. I've seen 10 year old post about this. Why hasn't this been fixed yet?

EDIT: Looks like "reformat code" puts braces where they should be, but how do I get it to place them correctly when writing code?
