Created attachment 427126 [details] the demo project (source code) Background: I'm building a web view based text editor (basically, a `conntentediable` <div> node) with our custom spellcheck mechanism. We disabled the built-in spellcheck by using `<div spellcheck="false"`. However, we found that the "Misspelled Words" rotor is still available. Any method to disable it? Attached the demo project (source code)

Changed title from ~"unable to disable VO rotor" to "AX: spellcheck=false disables red underline, but VoiceOver's 'Misspelled Words' rotor is still available for a WKWebView" Context for the change being that you're not asking to "disable" an accessibility feature. You're expecting the accessibility feature to match the sighted user interface.
