Customize writer autocorrect?

English

In writer I keep making an error, instead of typing “better” I type “bette” which Autocorrect changes to “Bette”.

Can I set Autocorrect up to change “bette” to “better” (case insensitive) instead.

I’ve looked and maybe if I edit the DocumentList.xml?

Searching for “libreoffice writer edit DocumentList.xml” didn’t return any useful results in the 1st 20.

Thank you

You can add your own AutoCorrect rule.

  1. open Tools>AutoCorrect>AutoCorrect Options
  2. go to Replace tab, check that the correct language is selected
  3. in Replace type bette, in With better
  4. OK
