How do I fix the indentation of selected lines in Visual Studio

Question

In vim I can use   to reindent badly indented lines so  foo    bar   baz    becomes  foo  bar  baz    Is there an equivalent keyboard-shortcut for visual studio  Where can I find a list of such shortcuts for future reference     Edit  Is there a way to do fix just the horizontal indentation  There are some cases where the CTRLK CtrlF is  fixing  too much   In the meantime I ll see if I can edit the formatting options to my satisfaction

Selecting the text to fix  and CtrlK  CtrlF shortcut certainly works  However  I generally find that if a particular method  for instance  has it s indentation messed up  simply removing the closing brace of the method  and re-adding  in fact fixes the indentation anyway  thereby doing without the need to select the code before hand  ergo is quicker   ymmv
