Description greymalkin.tux 2016-10-16 10:40:16 UTC 
Created attachment 128029 [details]
the file in question, containing a list of dutch verbs

Version: 5.0.4.2
Build: 2b9802c1994aa0b7dc6079e128979269cf95bc78
locale: german de-DE

Description:
Unchecking the box "start every sentence with a uppercase letter" has no effect.
Ctrl-Z does not negate the effect of the autocorrect process.

Any better with last stable LO version 5.2.2?
Indeed, 5.0 branch is EOL.
Comment 2 greymalkin.tux 2016-10-16 14:23:05 UTC 
I removed Version 5.0.4.2 and installed Version 5.2.2, removed the Files in User\AppData\Roaming\LibreOffice.
Same as before, in the calc file and also in the table copied from the calc file to a .odt .
Weird thing is though, the first one to two attempts on the fresh install did work, and then it broke.
Comment 3 greymalkin.tux 2016-10-16 14:26:55 UTC 
So...
now it appears to work, on a new file at least.
I did not try this before, sorry for the clutter...
Why do the old files still show this behaviour though?
Comment 4 Julien Nabet 2016-10-16 20:41:56 UTC 
I'll try to find some time to give a try to your file.
Meanwhile, I don't have more questions, so let's put this back to UNCONFIRMED.
Comment 5 Julien Nabet 2016-10-18 18:06:50 UTC 
On pc Debian x86-64 with master sources updated today, if I open your file, without changing any option, then type "this is a sentence.", the first "t" isn't put in uppercase.
I must have missed something.
I don't think I can't help here sorry.
Certainly may help.

I opened the file, went to Tools - autocorrect options - options and unchecked Capitalize first letter of every sentence. Now I can write sentences without autocapitalization.

Maybe I will try on Windows before closing this as worksforme.
