I’ve enountered a “mis-spelled” underline that appears spanning some but not all of the letters and intervening space of two adjacent words. Both words are correctly spelled. I can retype part of one or the other to cause the underline to go away, but when I move to the end of the line and continue typing, it reappears.
I encountered this in the course of writing a larger section of text, but these instructions reduce it a simpler minimum to reproduce. I have reproduced the in a new/separate project via the following steps:
[list=][]Open a new project[/]
[]In the resulting, initial “Show Text View”, enter the following text: "Sel reveled quietly at the prospect. Although born and raised in Regency, he’d always enjoyed the winters as well as the summers. As he’d grown older, he’d come — in a self-described “contrary” fashion — to actually favor them. Unlike many of his peers, he didn’t "[/]
[]Then type in “honestly complain”. Either thereupon, or upon entry of further words, a “mis-spelled underline” appears underneath the “y co” portion of those two words.[/]
[]Go back and delete the underlined “o”. In my original project (which contains additional paragraphs before and after this particular text, doing so causes the entire underline to disappear. I can retype the “o”, and the underline remains gone until I go to the end of the line and type some more, whereupon it reappears. In my test project created to reproduce the issue, deleting the “o” does not cause the underline to disappear. It remains as I delete and then retype the “o”.[/] ([/list]
Note that when I typed in the text I cite, I let Scrivener’s Autocorrect change the quotes to smart quotes and double dashes to em dashes.
