If you press CTRL   I it will just format tabs whitespaces in code and pressing CTRL   SHIFT   F format all code that is format tabs whitespaces and also divide code lines in a way that it is visible without horizontal scroll

Reformat affects the whole source code and may rebreak your lines  while Correct Indentation only affects the whitespace at the beginning of the lines
