[Feature] Add misspelled word to solution dictionary #253

Closed DamianSuess closed 2 years ago

DamianSuess commented 2 years ago

As a user, I would like the ability to add misspelled word to the ignore list for my solution via the code editor. Currently, it only adds to the global xx-YY.dic file found in the %LOCALAPPDATA%\EWSoftware\Visual Studio Spell Checker\xx-YY.dic file rather than providing the option for the solution's *.vsspell file.

This would be greatly appreciated so that I don't have to manually find the .dic file and copy them over into the XML.

Thank you! btw, love the extension.

That can be done if you use an ignored words list file rather than putting the words in the configuration's ignored word list. In the same category at the bottom, you'll see a textbox for specifying the ignored words list file to associate with that configuration. The file can be set in the global configuration or any other file-related configuration. Once set, reload any open editor files, select a misspelled word, and you'll see an option in the context menu at the bottom "Add to Ignored Words File". The submenu will list the ignored words files it can be added to.
