Disable spacebar while swyping
I find it very annoying that swype uses the spacebar. I will occasionally touch the spacebar while swyping a word and the keyboard splits the word into two incorrect words. If swyping would ignore the spacebar this likely wouldn't occur. Maybe it's just me but it happens all too often. The ability to customize the keyboard would be even better, having the ability to turn off keys that we don't use while swyping, for example the period and comma keys next to the spacebar. I'm always getting unwanted question marks and exclamation points also.

What exactly happened to swype style keyboards. When Swype brought out the drag finger to type method, it was great. it was so much faster than hunt and peck, and accuracy was impressive.
Now every keyboard supports it, and they all suck. I spend more time correcting words than typing them. It's literally so bad that voice recognition typing is far faster and more accurate.
Hi James, sorry to hear this. Please submit a support ticket here https://aka.ms/sk-support with a video of the issue. This will help us understanding the issue further.
I agree James, the quality of the keyboard has literally tanked since it's inception. I often get results that I'm pretty sure aren't (Emden?? <<) *even in the English language
