How to stop formatter wrapping at 80 characters?

See original GitHub issue

VSCode Version 1.33.1 (1.33.1) Dart 3.02

Whenever code formatting is invoked, it wraps my dart code even though I checked all settings I could find I don’t think it’s a general VSCode issue because the same code in an .m file does not get wrapped.

{
    "dart.flutterSdkPath": "/Applications/flutter",
    "workbench.colorTheme": "Visual Studio Light",
    "editor.formatOnSave": true,
    "editor.minimap.enabled": false,
    "editor.codeLens": false,
    "editor.folding": false,
    "editor.highlightActiveIndentGuide": false,
    "editor.insertSpaces": false,
    "editor.lightbulb.enabled": true,
    "editor.renderIndentGuides": false,
    "editor.overviewRulerBorder": true,
    "editor.hideCursorInOverviewRuler": true,
    "editor.wordWrapColumn": 999,
    "editor.formatOnType": true,
    "editor.wrappingIndent": "none",
    "[dart]": {
        "editor.rulers": [
            0
        ]
    },
}

      final existingEvents = (await deviceCalendar.retrieveEvents(calendar.id, RetrieveEventsParams())).data;
      final newEvents = list.where((x)=>existingEvents.firstWhere((y)=>y.title == x['text']) == null);

Becomes

      final existingEvents = (await deviceCalendar.retrieveEvents(
              calendar.id, RetrieveEventsParams()))
          .data;
      final newEvents = list.where((x) =>
          existingEvents.firstWhere((y) => y.title == x['text']) == null);

You’re right, this is a Dart setting. For formatting, we use the SDK-supplied dart_style library which wraps lines at 80 characters, but you can control this with the "dart.lineLength" setting.

Let me know if this doesn’t work for you.

Wish this setting could be shared with teammates.

We use editorconfig, however the line length defined in screenshot above overrides property in .editorconfig file.

Have tried such config:

[*]
max_line_length = 120

[*.dart]
max_line_length = 120

None is functional.

Is there anything to do to make editorconfig configuration take precedence over dart editor setting ? Any alternative way to share this setting ?

Thanks 😉
