... it is written that one can use "Ctrl+K+D" ... but that didn't work.
I also tried "shift + alt + F", which was suggested here:
How do you format code in Visual Studio Code (VSCode)
... it didn't work either.
So my question is: how can you automatically format XAML code in Visual Studio?

Auto formatting settings in Visual Studio Show activity on this post. Select the text you want to automatically indent. Click menu Edit → Advanced → *Format Selection, or press Ctrl + K , Ctrl + F . Format Selection applies the smart indenting rules for the language in which you are programming to the selected text.
The code formatting is available in Visual Studio Code through the following shortcuts: On Windows Shift + Alt + F. On Mac Shift + Option + F. On Linux Ctrl + Shift + I.
In the default configuration for Visual Studio Code, the command can be run using the shortcut Alt+Shift+F. To format a range, in an already opened project, open the document that you want to modify, select the specific range to format, right-click, and select Format Selection.
Probably your formatting options are wrong, go to: Tools -> Options -> Text Editor -> XAML -> Formatting -> Spacing and on Attribute Spacing section click "Position each attribute on a separete line" and then try "Ctrl+K+D" again.
