editorconfig - how to specify underscore prefix for readonly private fields? [duplicate]

Question

I haven't been able to find anything on this online.

Is there any way to specify that an underscore prefix for readonly private fields should be added?

Ever since I started using an editorconfig file, Visual Studio will PascalCase the field when I choose the "Introduce read-only field" action.

I found this on another answer... Not sure if it is helpful dotnet_naming_style.private_prefix_style.required_prefix = _ – Thrown

Can you try the solution in this post? <br> #45737159 – Marjoriemarjory

Did you have any update for this issue? First of all, I agree with Sebastian's idea and VS can customize naming rules and include prefixes. You can go to Tools-->Options-->Text Editor-->C#(if you are using C#)-->Code Style-->Naming to add a new rule.You can refer to that document for details. – Licit
