How can I change the visibility of setter method by Intellij code generator?

Question

In my code generator, I saw the default visibility is public, so all methods generated is public, although I customized myself template of setter. enter image description here

My template: enter image description here Now, I need public getter and protected setter. How can I do?

You just can't, I'm afraid.

Like the text at the bottom of IDEA's "Customize Template" dialog says:

"Visibility is applied according to File | Settings | Editor | Code Style | Java | Code Generation".

That setting does not distinguish between getters and setters, unfortunately.
