Same keywords xtext formatter [message #1851577]

Hello,

I am trying to format a DSL, however I am having an issue. Consider I have the following:

Root:
'Element A' '{ ' ...... '}'
'Element B' '{ ' ...... '}'
'Element C' '{ ' ...... '}'
...
;

Now I want to do something with the third opening bracket after Element C. However, when I do,

 root.regionFor.keyword('{').append[newLine]

The formatting happens to the first opening bracket in Element A.
Is there a way to access directly the third one?

Thanks!

doesnt the regionFor.keywords(",") return a list?
you also can take a look at grammarAccess and the regionFor method that takes grammar elements as parameters
