I don't think there is a 2nd setting for codetools.
But instead of using tab to (un-)indent selected lines, you can use the
multi-caret feature.
Go to the left most column, on the first line. Then shift-alt-down until
you have a caret in front of each line you wish to change. Now either
delete spaces, or insert spaces.
Of course for un-indent that does not work, if there is a line with no
spaces at the front. You can over-unindent it (block + shift tab), then
shift-ctrl left click at the end of a line in the selection, to convert
the selection into multi carets, hit home-key to get the carets to the
front of lines, and insert a space.
The un-indent will work with empty lines in the range. "del" on
multicaret will not remove line-ends. (backspace will remove line ends).
