This also doesn't work if you don't want to type a space after the word. It come up for me when typing [email protected], where it correct myname to a word I've only ever seen when the Mac autocorrects to it.

| Jul 9, 2015 at 4:45 | comment | added | Jeffrey Simon | The only thing that works for me are one of these two annoying procedures: (1) take my hand off the keyboard, move it to the mouse and position the cursor to the "X" and click; (2) backup and change the word back to the correct spelling. The program then seems to understand that it should not attempt to change the word. It simply underlines it with the squiggly red underline. | |
