Pages 5.5  use keyboard to ignore spelling suggestion

Is there a way, using the keyboard, to ignore a spelling suggestion.  When suggestions pop up I can hit esc and they disappear, but without making the computer learn the spelling for each one (which I don't want to do) for some words, as soon as the space bar is hit to continue typing, the word changes, despite the previous attempt to ignore the suggestion.  So far the only way of remedying this is to go back to change the word after there is some text after it.

For some yes I can get it to "learn" the spelling, but for others I don't want to.  I am working on a document in multiple languages amongst which are ones with non-Roman alphabets.  There is even now not one accepted way for transliterating, so while I have my "official" one, whenever I cite an author who uses a different one I need to use their transliteration, not mine, so I don't want to "learn" the other transliterations.  It is also a problem when I am using American English and spelling but citing a text that uses British English and spelling.
I have noticed that if you add a punctuation mark after the word it won't autocorrect, but of course then you have to go back and take it out.   I have also had success with having an extra space after my input location and moving to "end of line" seems to also prevent autocorrect.  Which from what I can tell is my best solution.

  • Selecting Spelling suggestions using bluetooth/external keyboard

    Hi,
    I just got myself a logitech keyboard case. It works fine. But I have this questions regarding selecting spelling suggestions. Is there a way or a key combination that can be used for selecting the spelling suggestion without touching the ipad i.e. from the keyboard itself?
    Regards,

    Using the instructions in the below link we can use external keyboard to its fullest capabilties.

  • How can I keep pages from scrolling when using keyboard page-down

    The bottom of the pages window has a gear. You can select "Page" in the drop down menu and click the arrow, to perform a page down. The new page is positioned exactly like the previous page. But when I type fn+down-arrow or cmd+down arrow the new page view is either higher or lower than the previous page. Resizing the window makes it almost possible to get a consistent page display but not quite. It's awkward trying to read a document when each new page jumps to a new position. The arrow next to the gear is the only solution I've found.
    Does anyone know a way to achieve this page down view using just the keyboard. I'm using the iMac wireless keyboard?
    Thanks,
    Mark

    It is an annoyance, due to the 2 meaning two different things.
    The page down key means the whole window view which is not the physical page that you see in Pages.
    Apple could have clarified it by labelling the key +window down/up.+

  • How can I stop Firefox from changing Tabs/pages when I use the up/down arrows for scrolling?

    A recent update is causing the browser to switch between tabs, or even go on to other pages, when I use the keyboard navigation arrows to scroll down the page. This is aggravating, especially when filling out a form, which can submit before completion. The tab switching occurs mostly when the focus is not in a specific portion of the web page, such as when I have selected a tab. I I can find no way to disable this behavior.
    Win 7 Ultimate fully patched, Firefox version 35.0.1

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
    *Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

  • Keyboard shortcut for opening the spelling suggestions menu?

    On windows one can use the keyboard button for a right-click in order to open the spelling pop up menu in programs such as Word.
    Is there any similar way to open the spelling suggestions for the global OS X spell checking via the keyboard?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    You posted this a few months ago so may already have found the answer. If you press command shift ; all spelling suggestions will come up for you.

    You can install it on your iOS device (iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch) either by redownloading it directly on the device via the Purchased tab in the App Store app on it, or by connecting the device to your computer's iTunes and syncing it to it.
    Syncing apps from a Mac : iTunes 11 for Mac: Sync and organize iOS apps
    from a PC : iTunes 11 for Windows: Sync and organize iOS apps
    As to how to then use the app, if the description on the app's description page in the store doesn't describe how to use it in enough detail, then is there a link to the developer's website on its description page, and does that have details ?

  • Is there a way? When I type something in the search engine feature, is there a way that when I press enter to search, it comes up in a new tab, rather on the page I am using?

    When I type something in the search engine feature, is there a way that when I press enter to search, it comes up in a new tab, rather on the page I am using?

    Yes, and I presume you mean both the search engine results, and the pages opened from the results.
    Without making any changes you could always use '''Alt+Enter''' once you typed something into the search bar, or the location bar so that it would appear in a new tab. From the search results page you could always use "'''Ctrl+click'''" or "'''Ctrl+Shift+click'''" to open link n a new tab

  • Using keyboard commands to move an object

    Hello, I am trying to make a quasi-asteroids program. I'm trying to move a ship around using keyboard commands. If I put the keyboard commands in the same class as the ship it does fine. Now I'm trying to put all the keyboard commands in their own class. This is where I am starting to have trouble. Here's the code for the commands class and ship class.
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.awt.event.*;
    import javax.swing.*;
    public class Ship implements KeyListener
         ImageIcon ship;
         final int WIDTH = 300;
         final int HEIGHT = 225;     
         final int JUMP = 5;
         private int     x,y;          
         private int iWidth, iHeight;
         public boolean movingLeft,movingRight,movingUp,movingDown;
         public Ship ()
              ship = new ImageIcon ("ship.gif");
              iWidth = ship.getIconWidth();
              iHeight = ship.getIconHeight();
              x = WIDTH/2-10;
              y = HEIGHT/2;
         public void move ()
              if (movingLeft)
                   x -= JUMP;
              if (movingRight)
                   x += JUMP;
              if (movingUp)
                   y -= JUMP;
              if (movingDown)
                   y += JUMP;
         public void draw (Graphics page)
              page.drawImage (ship.getImage(),x,y,null);
    import java.awt.*;

         private Ship s1;
         public DirectionListener ()
              s1 = new Ship ();
         public void keyPressed (KeyEvent event)
              switch (event.getKeyCode())
                   case KeyEvent.VK_DOWN:
                        s1.movingDown=true;
                        break;
                   case KeyEvent.VK_UP:
                        s1.movingUp=true;
                        break;
                   case KeyEvent.VK_LEFT:
                        s1.movingLeft=true;
                        break;

                        s1.movingLeft=false;
                        break;
                   case KeyEvent.VK_RIGHT:
                        s1.movingRight=false;
                        break;
         public void keyTyped (KeyEvent event) {}
    The problem is obviously trying to communicate between the classes. Why can I not assign the boolean variables in the Ship class from the DirectionListener class? Thanks in advance.

        public void keyTyped(KeyEvent event) {
      public static void main(String[] argv) {
        new Ship();
    }... I made it an inner class, because you want to do very program specific stuff. I don't know really if I like this approach either, but I can't see what else you'd mean to do with the code you posted, what with the DirectionListener class doing such specific kinds of things.
    Some general critique: You forgot to add the 'default' keyword to your switch statements; and you really don't want to make the booleans public.

  • Is there a way of using keyboard input?

    Is there a way of using keyboard input in Edge? For example when you press the space-bar it will open a url. This is probaly done though programing.

    Shift/Command and Alt/Control have there own separate event routines.
    Example
    e.metaKey         // depends on browser and targets the Apple key
    e.ctrlKey             // targets the Control or Ctrl key
    e.altKey              // targets the Alt key
    e.shiftKey           // targets the Shift key
    So if you only wanted the event to fire when the Shift key is pressed, then
    if (e.shiftKey){                                              //If Shift key is pressed 
           window.open("http://www.adobe.com", "_blank");
    If you wanted to combine the Shift key + Space Bar to trigger the event, then resort to logical operators. In this case you want to 'combine' key strokes, then the logical operator would be a double &&, and demonstrated below.
    if (e.shiftKey && e.which == 32){                     //If Shift Key + Space Bar pressed
          window.open("http://www.adobe.com", "_blank");
    If you wanted to combine the Shift key + some other keyboard Character Code from the above noted list (http://rmhh.co.uk/ascii.html), then change the value of e.which to equal (==) that Character Code. Example from the list, the Character Code for the keyboard 'a' is 65, as altered below.
    if (e.shiftKey && e.which == 65){                     //If Shift Key + A pressed
    window.open("http://www.adobe.com", "_blank");
    To get an accuarte keycode value, there are two demonstrations on this page http://api.jquery.com/event.which/, whereby you can type in thee field and it will capture the value for you.
    Good luck

  • [Trick] Use Keyboard + Mouse from Xorg to control another Xorg session

    So you have two computers sitting together,  you don't have a kvm switch, and using two keyboards and mice is just plan annoying!
    X2X is the solution. This program allows you to use your mouse and keyboard from Computer A on Computer B.
    From the man page
    x2x  allows the keyboard and mouse on one ("from") X display to be used to control another ("to") X display.
    How to make it work?
    Allow TCP from xorg on both systems
    Edit /etc/X11/xinit/xserverrc and change
    exec /usr/bin/X -nolisten tcp
    to
    exec /usr/bin/X
    Computer A = computer that has the keyboard and mouse you want to use
    Computer B = computer that does not have the keyboard and mouse you want to use hooked up to it
    On Computer B run the command
    xhost +ComputerA
    Where ComputerA is the hostname/ip address of ComputerA
    This allows ComputerA to connect to ComputerB's xorg server
    On Computer A run the command
    x2x -to ComputerB:0.0 -west
    Where ComputerB is the hostname/ip address of ComputerB
    Now on ComputerA you should be able to move the mouse left, off the screen, and be able to control ComputerB!
    I use this to control my laptop using my desktop's mouse and keyboard. It's a lot easier than switching between my desktop keyboard/mouse and laptop keyboard/mouse!

    I have used x2x for some time before I started using Arch, but recently I decided to start using it again to control my laptop from my desktop box. I have installed x2x on the laptop. However, when I do

    I get:

    Current serial number in output stream: 21
    I have tried following your howto, but I seem unable to start X with tcp support. I have changed /etc/X11/xinit/xserverrc as you instructed, but when I start X and issue
    ps ax | grep X
    from a console, I still get:
    1670 tty7 Ss+ 0:15 /usr/bin/X -nolisten tcp vt07 -auth /var/run/slim.auth
    Can you tell me what I'm missing? Are these at all related?
    Thanks!
    Today I was looking into this and got working very fast using this thread. Are you sure you restarted your X server after changing xserverrc? Are you sure your display is at :0?
    Use
    echo $DISPLAY
    on the terminal to find out. Also you need x2x installed on both machines.

    Keyboard keys will only work under certain modes in CR.  You have to check the mode constantly to see in which ways they work.  There are too many conditions may cause them not work.  That list could be too long to find them all.  You would have a good grasp on the rule after you familiar with them.
