Description: it is of course understood that one would not want to uppercase the first letter after a ) or ” even if there is a punctuation mark just inside the delimiter. on the occasions that the text inside the delimiter is the end of the sentence, the shift can be done manually. but this makes no sense if the first character after the ) or ” is a newline (denoted by the symbol ↵ or html mnemonic ↵ (ampersand crarr semicolon))! clearly, if one begins a new line, that indicates another paragraph and should begin with an uppercase letter. examples: (a question?) more text but, (a question?)↵ New paragraph begins with uppercase letter. “an exclamatory quote!” and the rest. but, “an exclamatory quote!”↵ The newline should force the next character to be uppercased. my version is 6.4.7.2 but it has been present for a long time. Steps to Reproduce: 1.enter text with closing paren or double quote 2.hit enter 3.first letter of word following the enter should be uppercased but is not. Actual Results: paragraph begins with lowercase letter. Expected Results: when you start a new paragraph, you expect it to begin with an uppercase letter, or at least i do. the program does this properly except when a newline is entered.

Created attachment 180072 [details] a document produced with libre office writer to show what was discussed i really enjoy libre office, and just wanted to point this out.
I think this is justified. New.
What if someone is making a list? I think if you want an upper-case letter, you should use the shift key. My vote => WF.
Please give an example of a list. This is for sentences.
The OP was a bit muddled. However issue is valid. IIUC there is an sw editshell issue in defining/identifying the sentence / next sentence break iterators. [1] That is one facet, and affects selection (i.e. bug 147828, bug 125174). But also there is an issue that when previous paragraph ends with an undetected sentence, such that the following paragraph does not trigger the Auto-Correction "Capitalize first letter of every sentence" action. That seems wrong as well. =-ref-= [1] https://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/sw/source/core/crsr/swcrsr.cxx?r=b542d904#1552
