Wrong formatting inside JavaScript object by hitting "."

[Chris2011]

Apache NetBeans version

Apache NetBeans 14

What happened

When you have this piece of code:

const test = {

};

and you hit enter after the open bracket, it will auto indent n-spaces depends on the defaults/settings. For me it is 4 spaces. When you now hit ".", the formatting jumps 8 spaces further which is not correct.

const test = {
            .
};

How to reproduce

• Open/Create a new JS file inside an HTML5 Project
• Type the example code in
• Go to the new line between the brackets and hit "."
• It will add more spaces than expected. Doesn't matter whether the cursor is on position 0 or on the indentation (please see my little screencast)

Did this work correctly in an earlier version?

No

Operating System

Windows 11

JDK

Apache NetBeans packaging

Anything else

I also set the JavaScript features to "ESNext" that also didn't work out.
