Please change it back to > 'UNCONFIRMED' once the steps are provided I think the bug reporter did mean that the "title case" is the "Capitalize Every Word" setting located at Menu Styles, Edit Style, Font Effects, Effects, Case. Indeed, there are words that should not be capitalized, according to several style guides (Chicago, APA, Ap, MLA -- they don't agree for every word that should not be capitalized). For example, in the Chicago Style Guide, the word "and" should not be capitalized, so: "you and I", when applied the "title case"/"capitalize every word" should become "You and I" and not "You And I. To do this kind of enhancement, LibreOffice should have a list of words to never capitalize, for every language, when the "Capitalize Every Word" is set. Of course, the "Capitalize Every Word" setting should have its name changed to "Title Case". Of course, populating those lists should not be a priority, as each user will follow a different rule. I think it is a useful feature, as I myself do that manually on my paragraphs that are formatted with heading styles. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
