I use the Zoom Whiteboards with my Dyslexic students. I'd like to disable to spelling auto correct function. Is there a way to do that? Thank you!

Hi, 

Currently, Zoom and Zoom Whiteboard do not have a built-in spelling auto-correction feature. If you’re experiencing auto-correction, it is likely due to the settings on your Mac or Windows keyboard. https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-help/typing-suggestions-correct-mistakes-mac-mchlp2299/mac

I believe it has one, as the corrections it does, it doesn't happen in any other windows application.  Example, out of the blue it started changing will for Will and good for Good, in the middle of a sentence. it should be a place where we can edit the corrections just like in office apps or a way to turn it off even if is a "keyboard setting"
