Jedi code formatter missing from Tools menu

[jl]

I was using it previously on my old laptop, but after it crashed, I installed Lazarus 2.0.12 r64642 FPC 3.2.0 x86_64-win64-win32/win64 and now the option is missing.  I also tried using Ctrl-D but it doesn't work.  Can anyone please tell me how to get it back?  Thanks.

You probably have to install the package: Click on Package -> Install/Uninstall Packages, then select jcfidelazarus 2.0 in the Available for installation list, click Install selection button, then click on the Save and rebuild IDE button.

Thanks, I tried that, but doesn't appear to work.  Please check attached screens.

Thanks, I tried that, but doesn't appear to work.

What didn't work? Can you describe the steps you followed and the eventual problem or error message you encountered?  It is difficult to improve my instructions if I don't know what happens on your side.

  Please check attached screens.

Can you describe, using words, the steps you followed. It may help someone else with similar problems in future.
