VAssistX.SurroundSelectionWithParentheses without selecting text ends with cursor after the closing bracket.

Something like "()$end"

This makes no sense. It should end inside the bracket it just created so we can start typing stuff inside the Parentheses.

Something like "($end)"

I think this is a bug, not a feature.

Hello Hunt007,

I would be happen to open a feature request for you.

Oh, it looks like this feature has already been requested, in case 99523.

I have added your voice to the case.

e: updated case number

It turns out this is a new request! The other case was not related.

I updated the case number to reflect the new case.

Rather than use VAssistX.SurroundSelectionWithParentheses when there is no selection, why not just type (?

Do you have "Surround Selection via character toggles" disabled?

I guess you are right. I will enable automatically insert closing ) and change my workflow instead of using the VAssistX.SurroundSelectionWithParentheses shortcut.
