SWYPE - did something get updated/changed ? "Blue"

[Cody21]

I've been using SWYPE since September.About 2 weeks ago I started noticing that when I'm SWYPING words into something, there is a BLUE entry of all the letters keyed so far, with the "best match" green on top.  This has started creating input errors for me requiring me to go back and delete whole words, etc.

has anyone else noticed this?  Is it possibly a SETTING in SWYPE that I erroneously set?

thanks all.

Word prediction, maybe?

I have version 1.64.40.9380.

cody, I use Swype exclusively, everyday for almost all input, including these very words.

I'm using the same version as Gerio. My best match is also green.

As for the blue you describe, are you referring to the trace path of keys your finger traces across? There are settings for that. I never really paid attention to it before as I pay more attention to where my finger is moving and which letters pop up.

I also have version 1.64.40.9380, and so far I have had no problems with it, except when my fat finger hits a wrong key.

I found out the issue - it was of course a setting that I changed ..  in the Advanced settings for SWYPE, the WORD CHOICE WINDOW - I had it set  too close to "ALWAYS" ....  moved it closer to NEVER  and now I don't get the annoying popup while trying to SWYPE.

thanks all.
