Spellchecking

Last modified: 25 September 2024

ReSharper looks for spelling errors in identifiers, comments, and string literals. When it detects a potential error or a typo, it will let you know in the same way as other code issues — in design time or when you run code inspection in specific scope.

When ReSharper detects and highlights spelling problems in design time, you can press AltEnter and choose one of suggested fixes.

ReSharper: Detecting and fixing typos

If you use a quick-fix to fix a typo in an identifier, the Rename refactoring will be invoked automatically to ensure consistency of the change across your code base.

If the reported word is valid in your context, pick Add to user dictionary in the AltEnter menu to stop reporting this word.

Spellchecking is enabled by default, but you can disable it by clearing the corresponding checkbox on the Tools | Grammar and Spelling | General page of ReSharper options Alt+R, O.
