CSpell "problems" not cleaned after closing file [intermittent] #3692

Open alexolog opened 1 month ago

alexolog commented 1 month ago

CSpell complained on misspellings in the user settings.json.

After closing the file, the messages remained:

I expected them to be cleared.

The interesting part is that the issue is intermittent. Right now I have 2 vscode instances running concurrently, and it only happens in one of them.

@alexolog,

This is was caused by a change in behavior by VS Code. VS Code still has the files open in the background, even though there isn't an open editor.

If you use version 4 and enable the setting cSpell.useCustomDecorations, this problem will go away.

VS Code opens files in the background. When it opens the files, it triggers the spell checker.

There are two work arounds:

  1. Use custom decorations: cSpell.useCustomDecorations image

    The spell checker will handle rendering issues and files opened by VS Code in the background will not show up.

  2. The Spell: Toggle Show Spelling Issues, Spell: Show Spelling Issues, and Spell: Hide Spelling Issues commands can be used to show/hide spelling issues. Using these command will clean up and left over issues in the problem pane. image
