Stop PhpStorm from aligning associative arrays

Question

How can I tell PhpStorm (using version 8.0.3) to keep the following array as is when clicking Cmd+Alt+L to reformat my code:

$array = [
    'short' => 1, // I want this...
    'veryVeryVeryIncrediblyLong' => 123456789,
];

Instead of doing this:

$array = [
    'short'                      => 1, // Not this...
    'veryVeryVeryIncrediblyLong' => 123456789,
];

1) And by "aligned" you mean multiple lines aligned by => characters? (better post aligned version as well, to be 100% clear). 2) Always state your PhpStorm version. — LazyOne

Since PhpStorm 2017.x version the appropriate option is located at:

Settings (Preferences on Mac) | Editor | Code Style
PHP | Wrapping and Braces
Array initializer | Align key-value pairs

ORIGINAL ANSWER (for v2016 and older)

Settings (Preferences on Mac) | Editor | Code Style | PHP
Other | Array declaration style -> Align key-value pairs

I just created an issue on this see: youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WI-30571 . Align key-value pairs does not work on 10.0.3

In phpstorm 2019 it goes somewhere like this: (settings > editor > php > Wrapping and Braces > Assignment statement > Align consecutive assignments) PHPStorm 9 align assignments in PHP
