Auto-correct currently corrects as I type, but sometimes it chooses the wrong word. However, as I’ve already moved on in my typing, I don’t notice it until later. Is there a way to have a suspect word flagged only (as I type) so I can decide (more or less) on the spot to change it or not?
Yes - in Preferences / Corrections, tick “CHECK spelling errors as I type” and untick “CORRECT spelling errors as I type”. That way you will get a squiggly red line for a bad spelling; if you then right click the word in question it will give you a list of possible words which it thinks you mean (maybe only one if the typo is obvious).
ScriverTid–Thanks very much!
Hi, I somehow enabled auto-correct with spelling. I went into File > Options > Corrections, and I turned off auto correct and it STILL changes words that are correct.
Its very frustrating, when it is correcting a word that isn’t wrong. How do I fix this? Its probably obvious but I’m blanking and would appreciate the help.
Thanks.
