Where can I find the formatter settings?

Open ... > Settings > Formatter Settings in Nexo SQL Studio. Customize the options and see the result in the live preview.

Does the formatter support PL/SQL as well as SQL?

Yes. The formatter is designed for Oracle SQL and PL/SQL source, including common package and stored-program file extensions.

Do I have to paste code into a web formatter?

No. Formatting runs inside the VS Code editing workflow, where you can immediately review and continue working with the source.

Do all features work with every database?

Database support does not imply identical features. Connections and SQL worksheets are the starting point; editing, DDL, modeling, transfers, administration and AI operations depend on the engine and workflow. Check the installed version and the relevant guide before relying on an advanced operation.
