Autocorrect Bug in Colored Text

[TheDarkDM]

I've noticed this bug a few times in the past month. In the event where your misspell a word in a line of colored text, like so:

"I've misspelled a wworrd."

Clicking on autocorrect and applying the change also results in the rest of the line recoloring to red, with no way to change it back except to undo the autocorrect, like so:

"I've misspelled a word."

It still happens to me too

Only way to remove it is press the clear formatting button.

 

Edit: Hems that was odd - it totally did it but then when I posted it didn't

Fun. I'll look into it; it appears it's an interaction between the native spellchecker and CKEditor. In theory CKEditor is supposed to override native spell checking, but that's not happening... rants at the sky

Hold on, I stopped short of posting when it happened. Now I'm curious if the change only happens in the editor.

"Hey ho we're checking the spell checker."

 

Edit: Oh fun, it's not red, the color was removed instead when it posted.

Yeah, it's definitely within the editor. The action of the spell checker sets the paragraph to

color="rgba(0,0,0,0)"

which is not a standard attribute so the user agent colors it red in the editor. The discrepant attribute is stripped upon posting, putting it back to the default color.
