How to disable compact braces in IntelliJ idea?

Question

I simply want to change the default auto curly braces from shortening, example of this:

Public void main() { }

Instead of:

Public void main() { }

I can relate, but unless you plan on never working with anyone else, it's best to adapt to common conventions than to recreate them to suit your preferences. — shmosel
