Enhancement: Automatically fix errors as you type

Open EHMilon opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

Add Automatic fix error while typing like Word application, when we write something wrong it automatically fixes the error. If is it impossible, then add this feature. After typed wrong word, click on the word to show suggestions. If both of the above I mention not possible, at list show the lightbulb near the spelling error. And if all of those possible please add those features. Thanks developers for creating this wonderful extension. Hope you consider my request. @Jason3S

@EHMilon,

At the moment, it doesn't automatically fix errors as you type. It might be able to fix common spelling mistakes once the word is finished.

As for the other options, there are several ways to get suggestions:

  • right click on the word and choose Spelling Suggestions: image
  • Hover and choose Quick Fix...: image
  • ctrl-. or -. when the cursor is in the word to bring up the Quick Fix menu.
  • Bind some keys to the previous/next spelling issue command. image

Were you looking for something besides these options?

VSCode controls the 💡 light bulb placement.
