How do I stop IntelliJ IDEA 2020.2.1 (macOS version) from removing empty lines (only whitespaces) when saving files?

I've been trying to setup IntelliJ so that it does NOT strip out lines that only whitespaces when saving. But I'm not having any luck.

At the moment, I am editing a .java class and my indents keeps on disappearing. I've added a screenshot on the changes I've made to preferences.

Thanks!

Hello,

If you have .editorconfig files in your project, the option can also be controlled via those files (ij_any_keep_indents_on_empty_lines and trim_trailing_whitespace parameters). Settings from the .editorconfig file will overwrite IDE settings, so if you have such files in your project, you will have to either remove the setting or disable the EditorConfig bundled plugin completely if you don't need it.

It may also be a caching issue. Try restarting IDEA using the File | Invalidate Caches & Restart option.
