Ooops ... Wrong button ... here is the description: 

in the formatter there is a checkbox on the New Lines tab that says clear all 
blank lines. I would like this changed so that you can clear all blank lines 
above a certain value. So If I set "keep" to 1 then anywhere the formatter 
encounters 2 blank lines in a row it will compress them to one blank line. 


Input: 

public class foo {


  /** some attribute. */
  public int someAttr = 0;

  
  public foo() {
    // intitialize
    someAttr = -1;

    for (int idx=0; idx<1000;idx++) 
    }
  }
}

With code keep blank lines = 1 it is .. 

public class foo {

  /** some attribute. */
  public int someAttr = 0;
  
  public foo() {
    // intitialize
    someAttr = -1;

    for (int idx=0; idx<1000;idx++) 
    }
  }
}

With code keep blank lines = 0 it is .. 

public class foo {
  /** some attribute. */
  public int someAttr = 0;
  public foo() {
    // intitialize
    someAttr = -1;
    for (int idx=0; idx<1000;idx++) 
    }
  }
}

This is doable when the new code formatter preference page is ready.

Could you please check the new formatter preferences page in the latest
integration build and let me know if it works as expected?
Then I can close it.

This is done by changing the values for blank lines using the new code formatter
preference page.
