Is there a shortcut to indenting the code in Sublime 3?

Question

It is noticeable that in several IDE’s there are some shortcuts to indent the code. For example:

• Eclipse(Win): Ctrl + Shift + F

• Android Studio(Win): Ctrl + Alt + L

As everyone* knows, I assume, indentation visually organizes code so that dependent blocks are aligned, making it easier to understand and read.

An example of the code below unedited:

          <div class="navbar-header">
                <button type="button" 
class="navbar-toggle" data-toggle="collapse" data-target=".navbar-ex1-collapse">
               <span class="sr-only">Toggle navigation</span>
                       <span class="icon-bar"></span>
    </button>
    <a class="navbar-brand" href="index.html">SB Admin</a>
</div>

Now indented:

<div class="navbar-header">
    <button type="button" class="navbar-toggle" data-toggle="collapse" data-target=".navbar-ex1-collapse">
        <span class="sr-only">Toggle navigation</span>
        <span class="icon-bar"></span>
    </button>
    <a class="navbar-brand" href="index.html">SB Admin</a>
</div>

Is there a shortcut or "trick" to indent the code in Sublime 3?

Answer 1

Just add this line to your "Key Bindings - User" file (located in Preferences > Keybindings - User )

{"keys": ["alt+shift+f"], "command": "reindent", "args": {"single_line": false}}

Answer 2

Does not come by default a shortcut for this command (at least it didn’t come).

What you can do is add a custom shortcut: Preferences -> Key bindings, and in the right tab (custom), add something like this:

{ "keys": ["ctrl+shift+r"], "command": "reindent"}

Here’s mine: I use a lot of ctrl+shift+r for reindentation when I paste a code from outside (you have to adjust the language before to work with a new unsaved file).

Another way is to use the command ctrl+shift+p (goto Anything, one does everything), which I use a lot too. You type part of the command ( reindent, word wrap) and it shows the options.

Answer 3

Go to the menu Preferences -> Key bindings

Two tabs will appear, in the right tab(custom), you inform the code below.

{"keys": ["ctrl+k+d"],"command": "reindent"}

Or another to your liking, if another, check if in the right tab there is this command. In my case if I press only the keys CTRL + D he Indenta.

NOTE: For the code to be indented you have to select, it is not like other Ides that you do not need to select the code. I hope I’ve helped.
