auto-spellcheck must be disableable

[davidascher]

on snow leopard anyway, i keep getting autocorrection of commit messages, which are at best hilarious and at worse just really annoying.

+1 (on OS X 10.7) -- autocorrect is enabled, but the contextual menu required to disable it is... disabled.

To disable auto-spellcheck, you need to have focus on a field and you will be able to disable it via the contextual menu (which won't be disabled).

This autocorrects anything from "minify" ("magnify") to jQuery ("query"), etc. This should be an options in Preferences that is by default set to off.

To disable it, I found I had to start typing into a text box, then right-click and disable it. Not something many users are likely to find.

Please consider making this an option, it's driving me batty!

[yonatancups]

+1, should be off by default. Is anyone doing anything with this? I see this issue is over 3 years old and still exists

[kybishop]

another +1 more than a year after my last . . I'd like to add that disabling autocorrect on the field does not stick for me . . autocorrect manages to turn itself back on after a restart.

i agree that disabling autocorrect doesn't stick.

and put "fixup" in the dictionary!

[incandescentman]

As far as I can tell there's no way to disable it permanently.

[danlwarren]

Yeah this is just really annoying and hard to understand.
