Just upgraded to Ventura.

Is there an option for turning off spell correction and auto punctuation and auto quotes?

Cheers

Oh yes, sorry. Go to System Settings, Keyboard, Text input sources, Edit. Toggle OFF

How to disable auto-punctuation in Ventura? I'm dependent on Dictation for typing and I really appreciate spell check, but I'm at a loss for words to describe how useless (and very annoying) auto punctuation is in Ventura. Is there some way to disable this, without disabling spellcheck? There is in iOS, but I can't find a solution in Ventura. The illogical, random insertion of full stops, commas and apostrophes causes dictation to take twice as long as before due to all the corrections required.

Monterey had system-wide settings that were set via the keyboard section in system preferences. Does Ventura maintain similar functionality that are OS-wide settings?
