Solution 2 - Intellij Idea

For 12.1.6 on OSX:

Preferences->Inspections->Spelling

Solution 3 - Intellij Idea

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.

In Windows and Android 2.3 ...

File -> Settings -> Inspections -> Spelling ...

Solution 5 - Intellij Idea

Use the annotation for the class / method / field

@SuppressWarnings("SpellCheckingInspection")

Solution 6 - Intellij Idea

They need to introduce @spellcheck:off like the formatter.

Solution 7 - Intellij Idea

update for 2020

File >> Settings >> Editor >> Inspections >> Proofreading (uncheck all)

Solution 8 - Intellij Idea

For Android Studio, I found "Inspections" directly under "Project Settings," and not under "IDE Settings/Editor".

Solution 9 - Intellij Idea

If you want to suppress in a file, you can use comment in file like <!--suppress SpellCheckingInspection --> in html.

Solution 10 - Intellij Idea

On Android Studio version 1.1 on Mac setting off Spelling from File menu does not work.

Set spelling from Android Studio > Preferences > Inspections.

Uncheck Typo and uncheck Spelling located in the first group of options "Project Settings".

Solution 11 - Intellij Idea

In MS, you can use Alt+Enter to disable the inspections.
