MacOS – Sublime Text is autocorrecting “^”

keybindingsmacossublimetext

I use Sublime Text 3 for my LaTeX coding. Whenever I try to type something with a carat such as e^{x+2} it autocorrects it to e{{x+2}}. The autocorrect occurs right after typing the first curly brace and only occurs in math mode.

I've looked through my Key Binding settings but it all looks pretty foreign to me. This post here seems to refer to adding this autocorrection, but again is tough for me to understand what is going on.

I would suggest you try turning off spell check. Under the sublime text menu item go to preferences and click on "Settings Syntax specific". You get a file that shows setting for spell checking. If that is true, try to change it to false.
