+        IDEA has it's own rules of indentation when pasting code and it applies these rules to
+        all the lines of the copied code. This may result in wrong formatting of code in many
+        checkstyle files. A simple solution to this problem is by using the key combinations
+        <code>Ctrl + Shift + Alt + V</code> or <code>Edit | Paste Simple</code>. However it is
+        recommended that this settings be changed by default as shown below
