Can I see rule used for reformat in IDEA IDE?

Question

Sometimes when reformatting code via CTRL + ALT + SI struggle with finding rule which is the reason for changing my code. Is there any detailed view in any IDEA IDE for this?

Specific example:

Before Reformat:

myMethod(){}

After Reformat:

myMethod(){
}

And I kind of have to search through all styling settings.

You can try to do the following:

• Select a code fragment

• Press Alt+Enter and click Adjust code style settings
