Description Philippe Laugier 2020-09-08 14:43:45 UTC
Description:
With [hopefully] all automatic corrections off, typing in lowercase is transformed as shown below:
value -> value [OK]
va-lue -> Va-lue [Not OK]
value[] -> value[] [OK]
value[0] -> Value[0] [Not OK]
value{0} -> Value{0} [Not OK]
value(0) -> Value(0) [Not OK]
Of course it is not an exhaustive list, but only the case I encountered



Steps to Reproduce:
1. type "value[0]" in any cell
2. press enter
3.

Actual Results:
Value[0]

Expected Results:
value[0]


Reproducible: Always

It is not changing anything in my case...

Version: 7.0.1.2

CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 5.4; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3
Locale: en-US (ro_RO.UTF-8); UI: en-US
Calc: threaded

I tested on:

Version: 6.4.6.2 (x64)
Build ID: 0ce51a4fd21bff07a5c061082cc82c5ed232f115
CPU threads: 8; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19041; UI render: GL; VCL: win; 
Locale: en-US (en_US); UI-Language: en-US
Calc: CL

Using cell A3, I added the string: "va-lue" and it did correct it after pressing ENTER to "Va-lue"

However, I surmised that it was related to autocorrect setting, and it seems to be.

If you go into the menu "Tools"->"AutoCorrect Options..." and uncheck the option: "Capitalize first letter of every sentence", this correct the effect in my case.

Philippe,

Can you confirm that unchecking the option is solving your issue. If it is please close this issue.

The trick that in order to disable it, you need to access a menu that is only visible when interface is "standard tool bar"...

Note that it would be nice all menu items are accessible whatever interface is selected!
