Writer Guide

Using word completion
If Word Completion is enabled, Writer tries to guess which word you
are typing and offers to complete this word for you. To accept the
suggestion, press Enter . Otherwise, continue typing.
Tip
Many people prefer not to use Word Completion. If you do not
want to use it, select Tools > AutoCorrect > Word
Completion and deselect Enable word completion.
You can customize word completion from the Tools > AutoCorrect >
Word Completion page (Figure 82).
Figure 82: Customizing word completion
• Add (append) a space automatically after an accepted word.
• Show the suggested word as a tip (hovering over the word) rather
than completing the text as you type.
• Change the maximum number of words remembered for word
completion and the length of the smallest words to be
remembered.
• Delete specific entries from the word completion list.
• Change the key that accepts a suggested entry—the options are
right arrow , End key, Return ( Enter ), Space bar , and Tab .
