Double spacing on M1 MacBook Air keyboard

I have noticed lately that there are sometimes quite a few double spacing errors on the keyboard of my new MacBook Air and it sometimes prints random words - strange ge but true. I have left the strange but true one in as an example of what is happen ing. (also happening)


Any ideas?

Hello rondux,


It sounds like you're experiencing an issue with double-spacing on your MacBook Air, and we want to help any way we can.


To clarify, does this happen in all apps, or only when typing in certain applications? If the issue occurs in Pages, you can find some good information about spacing here: Set line and paragraph spacing in Pages on Mac


To change keyboard preferences on Mac, please check out this link: Change Keyboard preferences on Mac

You can also find some good information on how to manage punctuation and text replacement settings here: Replace text and punctuation in documents on Mac


Thanks!
