Pretty basic stuff. STRG or CTRL + ALT + l reformats the code, but in a way that is rather strange:

    if ( $a > $b )
        echo "a is größer als b";
        if ( $a == $b )
            echo "a ist gleich groß wie b";
            echo "a ist kleiner als b";
There is no template or anything that I would know of that could trigger this. Nevertheless, it is a nuisance to have the code changed in such a kind of way. 
The question is: how can I prevent PhpStorm from doing this. It appears only in since the latest update of the software (PhpStorm 2016.2.2) not in earlier ones. 
The version of PhpStorm is 
PhpStorm 2016.2.2
Build #PS-162.2380.11, built on October 24, 2016
JRE: 1.8.0_112-release-287-b3 amd64

                That the else if construct is not being broken apart in such a manner.  The thing is that elseif remains the same after a code refactoring, while else if does not. This is something that has changed with the latest update

                I'm confused by this being the default behavior and that I need 'special treatment' for it to leave my code alone. Very silly.

                That appears to be new. I must have overlooked it. Sadly, it does not reverse the mess that it had created in the first place. As this had only been at one point in my code, not much harm had been done. Thanks.
