Why is there 1k options on how to beautify code?

I have PHPstorm for more than a year now. I have spent an untold amount of time scouring the internet looking for a answer in plain english. How do I beautify the code? And isn't there a button that simply says it, 'beautify code'. It would be pretty fn simple to do that and very helpful to the base of buyers.

Hi there,

Code | Reformat Code...

Where? "Settings/Preferences | Editor | Code Style | PHP"?

Because everyone has different preferences: some people want "if(!$something)", others "if (!$something)" and others "if ( !$something )".

Just use "Set from..." and choose PSR-2 or another comfortable standard/preset and use it -- no need to configure all things manually.
