How to disable Studio automatically combining letters into ligatures?

I recently upgraded from Studio 2019 to 2022. I suddenly realized that Studio is automatically combining "fi" and "ti" into one-character ligatures (and probably others too). It happens as I type, and it's also done on the imported text. It's not there in the original. I see that it only happens with certain fonts.

I don't want this. It makes it difficult to edit, since I'm always expecting to be able to delete one of the letters or type inbetween them. Also, I don't know if my client wishes this. I haven't been able to figure out how to turn this off. Searching turns up nothing. Can anyone help?

  • I was a bit quick yesterday. Choosing "Show all tags, but no formatting" made the ligatures go away, but of course all other formatting is also not shown. This is unfortunate, because then I can't even see which segments are headers, among other things. This is even worse than having the ligature problem. So I'm going to have to keep the ligatures unfortunately. (It makes no difference in the finished translation, it's just an editing problem.)

    In the previous version of Studio that I used, 2019, this was not a problem. I had formatting enabled but never had this ligature problem with Calibri or other fonts.

    But I assume this is just an added stupid feature of Studio that can't be independently disabled.
