How can clang-format don't put if statements into one line?

Question

Just like the code below, I use clang-format to automatic format my codes

if(detectBeats[*beatsCont-2] > detectBeats[*beatsCont-1]
   || fabs(detectBeats[*beatsCont-2] > detectBeats[*beatsCont-1]) < 1.0)
{
    *beatsCont -=1;
}

Whatever I set the .clang-formt file, it always formatted like this:

if(detectBeats[*beatsCont-2] > detectBeats[*beatsCont-1] || fabs(detectBeats[*beatsCont-2] > detectBeats[*beatsCont-1]) < 1.0)
{
    *beatsCont -=1;
}

How can I set the rules not wrap the if statements into oneline?

My question isn't as that question(Clang format splits if statement body into multiple lines), b/c my if statement wrapped, not the body

Here is my .clang-format file

`AllowShortBlocksOnASingleLine`? Here is your possible duplicate: [**Clang format splits if statement body into multiple lines**](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/22512344/clang-format-splits-if-statement-body-into-multiple-lines) — Khalil Khalaf, Dec 08 '16 at 06:49
Also you could use the `// clang-format off` command before a block of code, then `// clang-format on` after the block, and that will exclude your block from getting formatted by `clang`. So you format it yourself and exclude it from the automated formating.

@FirstStep AllowShortBlocksOnASingleLine won't work, and comments-way for every if statements is too verbose, I'll keep looking solutions — user392412, Dec 10 '16 at 04:15

You need to use ColumnLimit. Doc here. More method here

`ColumnLimit` is a global property. It can't prevent short manually wrapped lines from combining and leave long lines as-is. – Mark Jeronimus Jul 19 '20 at 18:09
