Error when spelling in Italian, the apostrophe disappear

[rug]

When the Spelling is set on Italian (Character>Language>Spelling> Italian) and you press the apostrophe key in order to get the apostrophe (') character, you get wrongly the "»" character instead. So, if you try to write "L'amore al tempo del Coronavirus" you get "L»amore al tempo del Coronavirus" that's ridiculous. Again, it affects only when you try to type the apostrophe character, doesn't convert already typed apostrophes.

Italian language has a lot of apostrophes, so, please, fix it.

I get L'amore:

  Have you tried with a different font?

[rug]

It is independent of the font. I attached a small video. Of course I am pressing the apostrophe key all the time in the video

After some further tests I think in the end I have identified the culprit. This is the "Preferences> Auto-Correct> Support language quotes to typographic quotes" option as in the attached picture.

thanks for the help

Maybe it's a combination of culprits:

I can have this third checkbox ticked AND get the expected single ’ apostrophe IF i press opt-shift together with '.
(which, I assume, is the proper way to type that character, even though some fonts seem not to show the single, straight ' but the curved  ’ instead even without the opt key)
