I notice that you capitalized the tabs in English :-) I've been wondering how to do that for ages. Could you also capitalize "macros wiki" ?



On this page http://oooauthors.org/portal_actions/manage_editActionsForm for each tab, type the name in the "Name" field with a capital letter. For example, I've just changed "macros wiki" to "Macros wiki".



*sigh*

Yes, I am familiar with this page. I use it every time I edit the tabs. And the main items on this page have always been capitalized, for as long as Authors has been around, but when Plone actually rendered them as tabs it always changed them to lowercase. It seems that Marko did something to change this behaviour.


I know you are familiar with that page, and that you use it to edit the tabe. I've only recently started looking at it myself.

Because "macros wiki" wasn't capitalised until I changed it, I didn't realise that you had capitalised the other tabs all along, but they didn't display as capitals.

I should have added to my original note "perhaps something has changed in Plone". CPH's suggestion that it's defined in the CSS would certainly explain the change.

Cheers, Jean


Jean, You are right! :-)

The easiest way to customize the tabs (in text or context) is to create new tabs or modifiy exiting tabs with the condition property!

All You need to know is what every section need.
If we know it, we can create special tab sets for each section (that means sets with own tabs and tabs like 'User Guide' only with the language specific label).

The other way to translate the tabsets is ugly. You have to customize all laguagespecific files of plones translation service.... to much work for some tabs!

@CPH: Yes , its defined in css. And there is a default-value on http://oooauthors.org/portal_skins/custom/base_properties/manage_propertiesForm, the property is 'textTransform' an the default value of plone is 'tolowercase' ;-) .

As i said it I like Plone!

I'm happy to get my 'Plone-Bible' last week 'The definitiv guide to Plone' (c) Andy McKay.

Cheers Marko
