采用半宽英文字体，开启 unicode-string

[Mikachu2333]

开启 unicode-string

终究只是权宜之计，真正根除还得作者改进统计方式啊

采用半宽英文字体

我现在就是用的思源黑HW，中英文标准1:2

[trarer]

搞不懂你“统计方式”意思，采用 unicode-string 功能可将 unicode 当作两字符宽来处理，带有汉字的表格可以对齐。不开启这个功能，默认是将所有字符当作等宽的。或者是说，你觉得程序应该根据实际字体的大小来统计，这是排版程序应该干的事情。问题的本质就是汉字比拉丁字母复杂太多，混排时做到中西文等宽会导致拉丁字母太大或汉字太小。若是采用半汉字宽英文，英文又会相对偏小或汉字偏大。我感觉应该给出一个用户设定中西文字体倍率的功能，比如一个汉字等于 1.5 个拉丁字母，而不是只能固定 2。

采用 unicode-string 功能可将 unicode 当作两字符宽来处理，带有汉字的表格可以对齐

抱歉，这里没懂。按照您的说法，我该如何调整我的VSCode设置才能让表格看起来排版整齐呢？

你觉得程序应该根据实际字体的大小来统计

是的，我的想法就是按照utf编码排序，如果是某几区的字符就把一个字符统计为两个再format，不过看起来有点天方夜谭了……

[trarer]

你想的没错，并不是天方夜谭。latexindent 的 unicode::string 功能就是 unicode 的 CJK 分区的字符当作 2 个字符来计算的，但不是实际字体的大小，所以你必须找一个 0.5 倍汉字宽的西文等宽字体配合使用。你需要在 latexindent 命令的参数中加入 -GCString，可以打开 unicode::string 功能。

[Mikachu2333]

你需要在 latexindent 命令的参数中加入 -GCString，可以打开 unicode::string 功能。

还有这个解决方案？！牛逼！

[Mikachu2333]

可以打开 unicode::string 功能

不大对劲，我是用的windows以及latexindent独立程序，按照doc中所言，windows上的独立程序已经默认启用，所以无论是否使用都不应当看到任何有差异化的输出……

所以说还是不太行啊 (笑哭）

[trarer]

不知道了，肯定是可以的。如果你用命令行肯定是可以的，如果你用 vscode 你需要在设置中加入参数。

[cmhughes]

I'm sorry, I have no idea what this means

@Mikachu2333 has trouble using Unicode::GCString on vscode.

[cmhughes]

This repository has nothing to do with vscode, I recommend posting your issue on the vscode repository.

In the latest version 3.23.7, from the code in C:\Users\AAA\AppData\Local\Temp\par-5875\cache-915a8c0064c09de5b911dab5529ae5b236f00de7\inc\lib/LatexIndent/AlignmentAtAmpersand.pm extracted by latexindent.exe,

sub get_column_width {

    my $stringToBeMeasured = $_[0];

    # default length measurement
    # credit/reference: https://perldoc.perl.org/perlunicook#%E2%84%9E-33:-String-length-in-graphemes
    unless ( $switches{GCString} ) {
        my $count = 0;
        while ( $stringToBeMeasured =~ /\X/g ) { $count++ }
        return $count;
    }

    # if GCString active, then use Unicode::GCString
    return Unicode::GCString->new($stringToBeMeasured)->columns();
}

it can be seen that latexindent.exe only automatically loads Unicode::GCString and does not default to using Unicode::GCString to treat cjk characters as 2 characters for length calculation. You still need to use –GCString to enable this feature.

[Mikachu2333]

You still need to use –GCString to enable this feature.

Thanks for answering!

And, I use the powershell to run the command D:\texlive\2024\bin\windows\latexindent.exe -c d:/LanguageLearning/Latex/test/ d:\\LanguageLearning\\Latex\\test\\main -y=defaultIndent: ' ' -GCString, and, everything is pretty good without any error.

So, I change the args and use --screenlog and Finally got the answer of both #528 and this issue.

As the following output and pic show, the vscode use the latexindent in the temp floder instead of the exe file I worote in settings, and the two have different SHA-1 value...

When using D:\texlive\2024\bin\windows\latexindent.exe, it will automatically unzip under the Temp path and re-run a new command in the background. The --screenlog option merely displays the final command run in the background. Of course, you cannot directly use C:\Users\mikac\AppData\Local\Temp\par-6d696b6163\cache-915a8c0064c09de5b911dab5529ae5b236f00de7\latexindent.exe to format your file.

But there is no other possible reason for this issue to occur，furthermore, I am not sure if this is related to paths that were not wrapped in double quotation marks.

Besides, when running from the command line, everything is normal and correct, so I believe this is due to VSCode

[Mikachu2333]

Here is the exe file I repackaged after modifying Document.pm.

After I use the exe file repacked by @fengzyf , when I was about to use --GCString arg, latexindent noted me that Locale 'Chinese (Simplified)_China.936' is unsupported... And, after remove the arg, latexindent format the file successfully but still unable to align the contents of cells.

[cmhughes]

I believe this is fixed as of https://github.com/cmhughes/latexindent.pl/releases/tag/V3.23.8 let me know if not

[Mikachu2333]

Wonderful! Tremendous! The problem that has been bothering me for a long time has been perfectly fixed!
