Description Gao Hao CLA 2020-08-05 05:21:30 EDT 
Steps to reproduce:

①. enable Automatically close (parentheses),[square] and <angle> brackets in preferences page

②. copy or type below code:


new HashMap<>()

 
③. delete the opening parenthesis )


④. type opening parenthesis (

Expected:

new HashMap<>()

Actual:

new HashMap<>())

Very annoying, I want to keep the ① behaviour and not insert closing brackets if there exists the corresponding closing bracket.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
