Equals behavior since version 18.2.8
When I am using VS 2019 . (not seeing in VS 2017)
When I enter something like this:
checkBox1.Checked
Then a Space
When I type the Equals Sign it inserts "@checked" to this:
checkBox1.Checked @checked=
or if I type: "Form1.Owner =" I get "Form1.Owner owner="
etc.
Thank You,
Scott Snyder
P.S. Code Places is already a valuable asset and I see its potential to grow.
Scott,
I reproduced this incorrect behavior and passed this ticket to our developers for further investigation. You will be notified when we fix this issue.

As a workaround for now, I suggest you disable the Naming Assistant feature when working with Visual Studio 2019. To do so, open the "Extensions->CodeRush->Options" window, navigate to the "Editor->C#->Naming Assistant" category and uncheck the "Enable Naming Assistant" checkbox.
