I wish I could turn off the predictive spell checking features too. I am a lousy typist, make a lot of dyslexic mistakes, use backspace a lot and spend more time trying to fix wrong guesses by the checker. Too much predicting and guessing what I'm thinking. I liked it better when it just underlined what it thought was wrong and then I could go back and fix it with control-drag. ANNOYING.
And I don't appreciate the search fields that do that guessing too. I'd rather complete my request and hit return, rather that suffer the delays that occur. It seems to be de rigueur - the hip thing these days and I hate it. Again these thing should be options not forced on the users. On Mon, May 28, 2012 at 6:59 PM, J.
