Smart Keys settings: Python

Smart indent pasted lines

With this option selected (by default), PyCharm respects the PEP 8 indent when you insert a code fragment.

Use parentheses instead of backslashes for breaking lines

With this option selected (by default), PyCharm wraps the current expression in parentheses to keep integrity of the statement when you press Enter and split it.

Insert 'self' when defining a method

With this option selected (by default), PyCharm adds self to the method declaration.

Insert type placeholders in the documentation comment stub.

With this option selected, PyCharm creates a placeholder to enter the type in the documentation comments. The placeholder is added for all docstring formats but Plain.
