Michael Warner <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|UNCONFIRMED |RESOLVED Resolution|--- |WONTFIX --- Comment #2 from Michael Warner <[email protected]> --- Different languages have different capitalization rules. To apply sentence case in a way that works for all languages, LibreOffice leverages the ICU library and CLDR data published by the Unicode organization. Technically, we could override the ICU library for certain language-specific special-cases, but this would just open up a whole can of worms. It would never be correct, not even for English, because even if it capitalizes the pronoun 'I' it still wouldn't know which nouns to capitalize (like 'Unicode', 'English', or 'LibreOffice') and which ones not to (like 'library'). Even special-casing English to always capitalize 'I' wouldn't be correct. What if someone was using letters to refer to another section of a book, for example? Consider the following sentence: For more information, refer to footnotes i and j. It may be that only AI could do this correctly; which would be an interesting project, but unlikely to happen in LibreOffice any time soon. IMHO, this should be resolved wontfix. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
