--- Comment #11 from V Stuart Foote <[email protected]> ---
The [T] typing corrections apply as the strings being entered are being parsed
by the edit shell.

The [M] modify corrections are applied against existing paragraph(s) as
selected (or a full document selection) as the ODF is parsed/reparsed by user
action--so yes it requires an Apply action. From Tools -> Autocorrect "Apply"
.uno:autoFormatApply or the "Apply with edits" .uno:autoFormatRedlineApply
which triggers tracked changes UI. Existing on menu or customize assign a
keyboard shortcut.

So, as an example of a modify action, create a dummy text and add a few empty
paragraphs. Then check enable the AutoCorrect Options [M] "Remove blank
paragraphs" feature.  Apply it and watch the empty paragraphs be stripped.

Any [M] actions can be user configured to meet their workflows.

Ability to control the two "flavors" of autocorrection remains a fully
functional feature useful in reflowing and "modifying" existing content.

Seems more a RTM type issue if folks really don't get it.
