posibility to check only an active file in editor

Open travnick opened this issue 6 years ago • 3 comments

There is an option "only check current editor" which should do what I'm describing but it does not do what it says.

I'd like to have an option to do a spellcheck in current editor only - currently visible files (regardless of the active project). It would be great to scan only visible files, not all opened files.

I have multiple projects in one session (libraries I'm developing for final executable) so I do not want to limit spell checking to any project but only to file I'm editing (I do not care about a thousand other files I'm not touching at all).

What's more I do not care about external/system libraries so it would be nice to add restriction: "projects from current session only"

Can I close this as duplicate of #101?

I am not sure if the "Current visible files" you refer to are different than the one being edited. As mentioned on #101 the spellchecker should check the current file if part of any projects in the session.

I've created this issue since the existing option (#101) does something else. Depending on the goal it's possible that this is the duplicate of #101, or it's task for a new feature.

by "currently visible files" I mean exactly "currently visible files" (depending on configuration of QtCreator you are able to have few files visible - editor split + multiple QtCreator windows). On the other hand, maybe limiting this feature to "current file" - "the file where the cursor is at the moment" would be enough - but without limiting to active project or anything else.
