Disable spell checking on IntelliJ IDEA

Question

I\'m trying to disable spell checking in MacOS\'s IntelliJ IDEA version 8.1.

How can I disable it?

Answer 1

I've put together a "visual solution" here (inspired by a previous solution above/below by @user277236 in this forum!).

In Webstorm you can either:

1. Disable spell checking entirely, or
2. Disable spell checking selectively (e.g. just the code), but enable for some others (e.g. comments).

I'm on MacOS Webstorm (version 2016.1.2). First thing first, go to the "Inspection" pane like this...

Webstorm -> Preferences -> search for "Inspections" 

or...

Webstorm -> Preferences -> Editor -> Inspections

Within the Inspection search box, search "Spelling".

Option 1 - Disable spell-checking entirely

Option 2 - Disable spell-checking selectively

I've gone for option 2 myself. This seems to work for me so far.
