formatter settings and code example

The integrated code formatter changes scientific numbers like
  
  return 1.0e-3;

into

    return 1.0
  e-3

when using a custom formatter (settings attached)

This error depends on the code prior to this line (various dependencies), see attached file.

Note that this mis-formatting actually introduces a syntax error in the code where there was none before making it a more significant error than "typical" formatting errors.
