Highlight in literals doesn't work #203

Closed avs87 closed 4 years ago

avs87 commented 4 years ago

Highlight in literals works only if we have comment above misspelling literal. If we have not, highlight shows only for a few seconds. 2019-10-02_09-19-35 My configuration is:

Microsoft Visual Studio Community 2017 Version 15.9.16
Visual Studio Spell Checker Version 2019.7.8.0

The common tagger is not handling the preprocessor keywords properly. It'll be fixed in the next release. In the meantime, a workaround is to go into the configuration, select the C# Options category and set the "Apply the above options to all C-style languages as applicable" option to Yes. This enables the C# tagger for all C-style languages and it handles the preprocessor keywords properly.
