I'm not sure, I tried to see if it did that in the Proofreading 
scheme but it didn't do it here. Seems to me I've had it do that in 
the past by messing around but I don't know what exactly. I'd just go 
back and undo your recent changes. Without sounding like a total new 
version proponent, V12 does have a feature now that holds your last 
25 tweaks to Jaws so you can look back and undo them if needed.

Wish I could help more.
