Code-formatting: How to align multiline code to special characters?

Question

Is IDEA or one of its plugins capable of aligning code to special characters?

I mean so that the code

Map(
  \'name -> \"Peter\",
  \'age -> 27,
           


        

Answer 1

In IDEA 12 if you're using the Scala plugin you can configure "Align when multiline" for many things, including method parenthesis. Your particular example of multiple invokations on separate lines is not supported however.
