Still unclear to me what you want.
Don't now if this is what you want, but I have the following mappings for
changing upper to lower case from any position in a line:
" ALT <- to make from current pos till begin-of-line everything lower case
" To keep the cursor position it's prepend with mz (mark pos with z)
" and append with `z (go to mark z) (notice the backtick `[located under
" the ESC-key] is used, not a single quote sign ')
noremap <M-Left> mzgu0`z
inoremap <c-\><c-n> <M-left>
" ALT -> to make from current pos till eol everything lower case "
noremap <M-Right> mzgu$`z
inoremap <c-\><c-n> <M-Right>
" ALT-SHIFT <- to make from current pos till bol everything upper case
noremap <M-S-Left> mzgU0`z
inoremap <c-\><c-n> <M-S-left>
"ALT-SHIFT -> to make from current pos till eol everything upper case
noremap <M-S-Right> mzgU$`z
inoremap <c-\><c-n> <M-S-Right>

This does not seem to be a good way, consider if we want to change:
START -> STOP
Start -> Stop
start -> stop
STart -> STop
sTART -> sTOP
...
then we may need to have too many lines...
Or imagine if we need to change ABCDEFG into HIJKLMN:
ABCDEFG -> HIJKLMN
aBCDEFG -> hIJKLMN
abCDEFG -> hiJKLMN
abcDEFG -> hijKLMN
... how many lines should you write?
write a function and change each character seem to be a more sensible
approach.
