Spellcheck actions source control panel (commit message box)

[ciarantr]

Is it possible to use spellcheck actions in the source control panel? The errors are displays however when I try select the text I only get the option to cut, copy, paste.

This seems to be a VS Code limitation. When VS Code first enabled spell checking the source control panel, it allowed running the actions, but it caused an error in VS Code. I think they chose to disable the actions until they could fix the underlying issue.

Notice that `Quick Fix` hasn't been implemented yet.

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly Jason. I wasn’t sure, I thought at one stage I could use the quick actions to correct spelling mistakes but I was wrong.

Hi,

Any updates on this by chance? Even just seeing something is spelled wrong is enough, I don't need the actions.

Thanks!

@mjmatthiesen,

This had been working. I'm not sure why it might have stopped.

Is there any specific config I need maybe? I'm not getting anything underlined in the git commit message.

@mjmatthiesen,

I'm not either. I'll investigate.

Spell checking the commit message does not work on Windows, but does work on MacOS. Need to find out why.
