Description Jean-Sebastien Bevilacqua 2017-07-25 09:10:07 UTC
Steps to reproduce:

1. Write "january" in A1
2. Pull the cell to extends the months
3. You get February, March...

Like you can see, case is not respected when you pull and depending on the language you select, it's different.
For example, in French, all months are lowercase.


Feature:

- If the pulled month start with an uppercase, all months should start with an uppercase. (January)

- If the pulled month start with a lowercase, all months should start with a lowercase. (january)

- If the pulled month is only uppercase, all months should be uppercase. (JANUARY)


What do you think about this proposal ?

Sincerely,
Jean-Sébastien Bevilacqua

It's possible to create and add your desired list on:
Menu/Tools/Options/LibreOffice Calc/Sort List.

Resolved as not a bug, please if you are not agree, reopen it again.

Hello  m.a.riosv,

Thanks for your answer but it's not what I need.
The case should be taken from the pulled month (like in Excel) and not from a predefined list.

Sincerely,
Jean-Sébastien Bevilacqua

Have you tested, if you add a capitalized list then it is taken for extend cells, at least it works for me.
Comment 5 Jean-Sebastien Bevilacqua 2017-07-25 12:16:10 UTC
Hello  m.a.riosv,

Indeed if I create a list for each case type, it works great.
So we should pre-register all case type.

Do you know where is the predefined list in the code, like that I can add it.

Sincerely,
Jean-Sébastien Bevilacqua

Are you agree on close as not a bug?
Comment 8 Jean-Sebastien Bevilacqua 2017-07-27 09:28:16 UTC
Hello m.a.riosv,

Thanks a lot for this very good code pointer. Before closing it, I would like to know if the community would accept if I add month with all case types ?

Sincerely,
Jean-Sébastien

Jean-Sébastien: Eike said there might already be a request for this. I think you could try searching Bugzilla with the advanced search: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/query.cgi?format=advanced
