Non-matching closing bracket in a block of code

[adamantinum]

I don't know if it's the expected behaviour, but if I'm writing a block of code delimited by parentesis I would expect, starting a new line and closing the bracket, to match the closing bracket created by auto-pairing.

E.g.:

{
    |     // here I start a new line and type '}'
}

I get

{
    
    }|
}

This is working as intended. I don't really see the issue here. Do you mean that you want the bracket to be automaticlly dedented? That would be #6044

[adamantinum]

It should also use the previously autoinserted closing bracket, instead of adding an exceeding one

[pascalkuthe]

Ah so you mean how you can type } at {|} to move the cursor to the right {}|.

Yeah I don't think we will implement this. That would mean we would skip arbitrary whitespace (including newlines).

{| } also inserts an extra bracket on typing }.

Changing this would leave to a lot of annoying false positives.

I'm also interested in this feature, it would be nice not to have to leave insert mode to skip over the auto-inserted closing brace. I think it could minimize false positives by only skipping over the closing brace if it was inserted automatically as an auto-pair
