This is a possible candidate for surfacing in some sort of error/warning UI in the future as part of #271, but there is a case to consider this otherwise by design due to XAML language spec. Here is some more information on XML Character Entities and XAML. Is this a delta between XAML language spec and AXAML?

There were no problems on the last version (2023.3.1 rider) and (N, last for 2023 rider i think) version of styler
However, just after the update, this problem appeared. I am also not sure that there may be some delta here, however I do not have enough knowledge to answer this question.
Avalonia version unchanged

I also thought the problem was in my configuration but reinstalling the plugin also didn't help.

Also, it happens only for "Style" section. Close brackets remain fine.

Hmm, interesting. Thanks for the info; will need to investigate further.

Yes, Avalonia XAML is not valid XML in styles.

that would be a life saver to have an option to don't process this char while formating....

My problem is the same, this bug is still present in XAML Styler v3.2504.1.0. I think the best would be to add a new setting: "Process ">" characters" with a bool value. Will it be fixed? Maybe it is not a big feature request anyway.
