Description matthies 2016-01-12 16:02:10 UTC 
After defining a javadoc code template "r" for "@return " (note the space at the end), when expanding the template from

    /**
     *  r<caret>
     */

the result is

    /**
     *  @return
     <caret>
     */

instead of the expected

    /**
     *  @return <caret>
     */

I.e. the space in the template is converted into a line break.

Template expansion is configured to "Reformat Text", but that shouldn't be causing the observed behavior.

Reproducible

The problem is really with "Reformat text". I've set it to "Do nothing" and the problem disappeared.

If template expansion were configurable per individual template, it would indeed be a workaround to configure it differently for such templates.
