How to prevent the spell checker to automatically change the word I type?

Hello

I own a MacBook Pro, OS X Yosemite 10.10.5.

Processor: Intel Core i5 at 2.8 GHz
Memory: 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3

I was struggling with the spelling corrector assuming what I type is wrong and so it changes the word for another while I am always type, the result is that the mess this creates a bad word that will not be corrected because the editor already "fixed" it while "I screwed up".

The fact is that I'm Brazilian, so my first language is Brazilian Portuguese, which uses a series of special characters such as to, a, a, a, e, e, i, o, o, o and c, Furthermore, we seem to have many more words in our vocabulary and verb time if compared to English. The corrector seems to get confused with that too, and some Word's closer to her I am writing.
What seems to be the boss, is that in English, the feature is very useful, but when I type special characters, it assumes that this word should not be even with the input source for Brazilian Portuguese, which makes me wonder why I would fix it for my language if I have not noticed any difference at all. He gets it wrong in 90% of the time and a Word by a word it is delay my work and make me hate my computer.

Please, don't you know any solution for this? Go to system preferences > keyboard > text and UN-checking the "correct spelling automatically" doesn't change anything, even after restarting the computer. It's stressing me out of having to correct this as the corrector mess every 5 minutes!

Any ideas how to get rid of it?

Thank you!

The input source has nothing to do with spell checking and AutoCorrect.  Dictionary used for this defined under Edition > spelling and grammar > show spelling and grammar (or in the system preferences, keyboard, text, spelling).  For best results, use the dictionary for your language and not "automatic".

  • How to prevent the creation of 15000 files for 300 MB each day Firefox

    Firefox creates files of 'file' in C:\Users\LeRicain\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\dnm04rk5.default\cache2
    There are about 10,000 and 20,000 files I have to remove to get about 300 MB of space each day

    How to prevent the creation of these files in Firefox

    Here are the files from cache. Basically, it takes Web sites that access you a lot and records bits of them so they'll load faster the next time you visit them. FOR EXAMPLE if you visit Google.com much, Firefox will save some elements of this page in the cache so that the next time visit you Google.com, it will not have to re - download.

  • How to prevent the OSB 11g to change original prefixes xmlns?

    Hello


    Could someone tell me how to prevent the modification of the xml namespace that I have carefully specified in the WSDL and XSD OSB file?

    By example, if I deploy wsdl file beginning with

    <soap:definitions xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/"> ...

    Then I get to the BSO for the same wsdl wsdl file is something like

    <WL5G3N0:definitions xmlns:WL5G3N0="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/"/>


    He renames "SOAP" to "WL5G3N0".  This name change similar to most of the other namespace in the WSDL and XSD files xml prefixes.  This OSB causing to use for a purpose limited in our environment.  We simply turn this renaming feature off (or find different technologies of accommodation... ).


    So I hope it's possible to disable and someone knows how, in the community of Oracle users.  Could someone tell me if it is possible and how to disable the prefix renaming in OSB?


    Thank you

    or at least there is no known way to get that off, right?

    I'm not an employee of the Oracle, so I can't say with 100% confidence. I don't know a way, and I'm sure that the path does not exist.

    thinking of using 'engine for stateful service' Oracle SOA for this is very bad...

    It's not so bad. If you do not service calls in the Middle, then BPEL is not to dehydrate State, making it more or less stateless.

    DataContractSerializer seems to be picky and all pending schema corresponding to certain prefix text

    It's weird, but the code generators are a common source of bugs in SOA :-)

    Good luck!

    I can't find files because hyphens prevent the word search. It's really a lot of time to go back and change the names of all the renders that I do for web pages. I don't use dashes, when I type in the name of the file that I save. How can I get him to stop to change the names of my files?

    In the save for Web > Output Settings > saving files uncheck Unix under file name compatibility and see how it works.

  • How to prevent the opening of the popup submenu of mx:MenuBar during its events mouseOver/rollOver?

    I'm using a component mx:MenuBar with the xml data to a menu. The basic behavior as I see is, first by clicking on the top level menu item (IE on the horizontal bar), pop-up windows submenu opens. Then without clicking anywhere, if I have the mouse on / roll on the horizontal menu bar, the pop-up menus under other top level menus opens.

    This behavior seems to be incompatible. The pop-up submenus should open either on click any element of top-level menu (menu bar horizontally) or only on mouse over / roll of the menu bar.

    I want the pop-up submenus to open only when the click on the top-level menu (menu bar horizontally). So I added event handlers for the passage of the mouse as well as the rollOver events (I don't know which event gets actually produced on hovering over the menu bar horizontally). In the case of managers, I called the Event.preventDefault () method to prevent the default behavior (ie the opening of pop-up submenus).  But nothing works. I felt like I have no control over it.

    How to remove the default behavior and open the pop-up submenus only on the click event of the menu bar?
