Completely Disable Formatting and Completion in ReSharper for Visual Studio
I like a lot of the features that ReSharper offers, but I absolutely can't stand the formatting and code completion it does. It trips me up every step of the way. In javascript it's constantly stealing braces attempting to reformat my code making it not work, and hard to find where pieces are missing.
I would like to disable everything to do with ReSharper's formatting and code completion while still getting the benefits of the cool navigation stuff it has.
Is there anyway to do a selective install of ReSharper? I've tried disabling this stuff in the options but it doesn't seem to do any good.
Answer
Go to ReSharper | Options. Change the following options:
On the page Environment | Editor: turn off options that starts from "Auto-format" or "Auto-insert". This won't disable ReSharper formatting features completely, but at least they won't be invoked automatically when typing.
On the page Intellisense | General: change to "Visual Studio". Or, if you only dislike code completion in JavaScript, change to "Limited ReSharper Intellisense" and turn off JavaScript.
P.S. Could you please describe with examples, what do you type when ReSharper is "stealing braces". Thanks!
