How can I change the style of warning on resharper? (want to get rid of curly underline)

Question

Whenever I open legacy or third party code that does not comply with my stylecop settings I get loads of blue underlines (warnings). This makes it quite hard to read the code as it adds a loads of line noise.

Is there a way of changing this curly underline style for warnings (or disable it) in resharper without having to switch of the whole code analysis?

I'm running resharper 7.1.1

Answer 1

I only have Resharper 5.1 at work, but it should be similar in 7.1.1

Navigate to:

ReSharper->Options...->Code Inspection->Inspection Severity

and change:

StyleCop - Defaults (Requires VS Restart)->Default Violation Severity

to 'Show as hint'

And then restart VS.

Alternatively you can use CTRL + SHIFT + ALT + 8 (default VS keymap) to temporarily turn code analysis off / on.

Additionally, you can have individual 'Settings.StyleCop' settings files per project so you could create one for your legacy project to ignore everything.
