Why is it that every 10 minutes or so the "feature" that is toggled when pressing Command + Delete (on mac (likely ctrl+backspace on PC)) is toggling all by itself when im playing online + chatting?
The "feature" toggles the ability to delete whole words with 1 backspace press instead of individual letters... who the would want to do that in the first place is beyond me. Either way it is absolutely driving me crazy. How do i stop this "feature" from happening. I am not toggling it it is just happening on its own damn accord.
I have never had this queer little problem until 1.6.2 came out. Seriously im about to lose it...

Use the feature on your own once, it shouldn't repeat on its own.

If i didn't want to use the feature I would not toggle it, like I am trying to continue to do now. But like I said, it just seems to activate itself....
as I also said, im not a newbie here and this is a problem that has started with the release of 1.6.2.... Ive not got any new system components/keyboards or anything that is causing a change in how I play minecraft. I am a competent adult and I know what keys I am pressing as i chat in game. This turns itself on.

No one questioned your adulthood, competency, computer, keyboard, minecraft abilities and/or hand eye coordination.
All you have to do is press CMD + Delete, this will stop it from occurring automatically.

No, you are actually questioning my competency right here with this very post. You think I haven't already figured out that CMD + Delete toggles this feature??? I have seen it turn it self on, and toggled it off, a few mintues later it will just randomly occur, and I can turn it off again with CMD + Delete. There is just some thing happening that is causing it to toggle on and I cant for the life of me figure out what it is. As i stated previous, I am no novice to minecraft, and I have NEVER had this problem and I have never even known this was a feature until I was troubleshooting the other day when it started happening.
Also, try listing things you have tried so we can better assist you next time.
Have you tried restarting your client?
Yes restarting the client resets the feature to its default toggle (off). But that doesn't stop it from somehow activating once again.
I use a Steel Series 6gv2 keyboard if that makes any difference though I don't see how it would.
This isnt some once-in-a-decade thing that accidentally toggles on and I can just press a hotkey to turn it off. No, this has literally been plaguing me for the past week ONLY ON 1.6.2 NEVER ON A PRIOR MC VERSION & ive been playing MC online since 1.4.6. Sorry for my snarky attitude/unwillingness to be outwardly civil, but seriously, this is driving me nuts.
I assumed you didn't know a solution to a feature (hence you posting here). This is not questioning your competency, not knowing something does not question your competency at all. Right, I've been playing since Beta 1.0 (2010) and have never encountered this problem.
Some solutions I'd suggest.
Try a different keyboard.
Try a different server.
Try a PC if you have any access to any.
Make sure you have the correct and latest version of Java.
Back up your saves and delete your .minecraft and redownload from minecraft.net (usually solves most problems).
OK I have randomly figured out what is causing this to happen. And I have no idea how to fix it.
Since the new launcher has released, there seems to be an error that happens every time i press cmd + tab (alt tabbing to a different window). pressing cmd + tab causes Minecraft to activate the feature that deletes entire words with 1 press of the backspace button when typing. This feature is normally set to be activated when pressing cmd + delete, but now it just works under both hotkeys(cmd + tab and cmd + delete)
is there any way to bring this to the attention of the devs to get it fixed, or some way to just disable this pointless feature on my own? Its so damn annoying.
