What happened to square brackets?

Qualifying identifiers with square brackets has been broken for at least three releases now.

My current build is 10.12.6.30951. Square brackets are no longer added with using 'Format' or Ctrl-K, Y, Ctrl-B, B still works though.

And yes, I have it enabled in 'Inserted code->Special characters'

    My apologies, the build I referenced is incorrect. I have updated my original post. The problem, still remains, however.

    Hi @Dave Pendleton

    Thank you for reaching out on the Redgate forums regarding your Square Bracket query

    Can you confirm if Options > Format > Styles > Add/remove square brackets is enabled and set to Add brackets to all identifiers.

    I'm testing in v10.13.0 with this enabled and Square Brackets are being added when using Format.



    If you need to patch into the latest version the download link is available here:
