Shortcut - Key 1

[Koen Piller]

Hi,

I know there is a shortcut (Key combination) to transform any word in your program into Caps and I believe there is also one to turn that word into Proper. However I forgot which Key's. Anybody around to refresh my memory?

Thanks,

The shortcut for upper case is CTRL+SHIFT+U.

For lower case: CTRL+U

There isn't a shortcut for proper case, as far as I know. There's not even a menu command for it.

After all these years, I never knew about that one.

It should be possible to create an Intellisense script to do the proper case for you. But you would have to use it many thousands of times before it broke even. Much easier just to hold the Shift key when typing the first letter.

Or [context menu key], then [A] for upper and [context menu key], then [W] for lower case (read context menu and you know why).

Beautify mostly is better, if it's about code. Switching the case sometimes makes sense in strings.

Bye, Olaf.

Would it be a difficult thing to add to a context menu?

The Proper() function is there...

If you want to add the function to your own applications, that would be easy enough.

But if you want it in the development environment, I think Intellisense would be the way to go - if it's worth the effort.
