How to tell ReSharper not to add certain namespaces

Hi all,

If I have a class Account in the Product.Data.XX namespace and I'm currently working in the Product.Data.YY namespace I could either write var foo = new XX.Account() or add the Product.Data.XX namespace to the list and just write var foo = new Account().

It seems like in the current version of RS it automatically adds the Product.Data.XX to the using list. What I would like is for RS to either ask me if I want that namespace (Product.Data.XX) in the using list (I almost never do) or just automatically NOT add it to the list. In previous versions I believe it would ask you what you wanted. The new version tries to be too helpful. I saw in the options a way to always keep certain namespaces, but not a way to never add one.

So, is there a way for me to have var foo = new XX.Account() and keep it that way? Right now I have to constantly fight RS by going and fixing the changes it makes.

Thanks,
Peter

  Hello Peter,
  
  What ReSHarper version do you use? Are you talking about 8.0 EAP or 7.1.3?
  Also, do you have any other VS or R# plugins installed?
  
  Thanks.

  Hi,
  
  I'm using the latest 7.xx version. Besides R# I have installed "Microsoft Web Developer Tools", "NuGet Package Manager", "NUnit Test Adapter", "Spell Checker", and "Visual Studio Extensions for Windows Library for Javascript". However, this behavior happens in the regular C# files, it's definitely a R# behavior; these extensions should not conflict.
  
  Thanks,
  Peter
