How do I configure IntelliJ to insert <p> tags into existing javadoc?
I have configured my Android studio (IntelliJ) to insert <p> characters on empty newlines in javadoc by checking the box in Preferences > Code Style > Java > JavaDoc.
However, when I apply my formatter to my existing codebase ( Code > Reformat Code...
), the <p> tags are not inserted.
My question is, how do I get the IDE to successfully apply formatting for javadoc newline <p> tokens?

If you have JavaDoc:
/**
* Text
* <- no tag will be added here
* @author foo
*/
The tag <p/>
will not be inserted between Text
and @author
because there will be no target there. Tags will only be inserted between the description lines (first part of JavaDoc):
/**
* Text 1
* <- <p/> will be inserted on this line after reformat
* Text 2
* <- no tag will be inserted here
* @author foo
*/
I'm not sure if this is the problem you are facing. Let me know in the comments if it works for you with a multi-line description like the second example, or if it doesn't work at all.
