How to disable autocorrect correcting ones typing in push notifications window?

I have properly turned off Messages "autocorrect" function on my MacBook Pro, that runs on macOS High Sierra. Everything works perfectly if I type directly in Messages window. No autocorrecting what so ever. Fantastic.


However, if Messages app is not "active" and someone sends me a message, I receive a push notification. Still fantastic. Love it. But, if I decide to reply to that message there (in the tiny push notification window), it still autocorrects the he*l out of my message. Despite the fact that I have completely disabled autocorrect from the settings of my Messages app.


How can I stop autocorrect doing that? How can I disable autocorrect and stop it from correcting my typing when I reply to messages using push notification window?

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 10.13

There is also auto-correct settings located in the Keyboard System Preferences as well. In the Keyboard System Preferences you need to select the second tab labeled "Text" and uncheck the items you don't want enabled. I hate all the auto-correct features as well. Seems there are system wide settings and sometimes individual app settings.
