Hi, Currently uppercase/lowercase shortcut Shift+F works only when the cursor is inside the word or the whole word is selected. However, to improve efficiency, like functioning in MS Word, it will be very nice to have the function working when the cursor is at the end of the word which's case is to be changed. For example if i type 'beneficiary' and i realize that it will start with a capital or whole word should be capitalized i could use the function just at the end of the word without pointing (either with mouse or arrows) the cursor to the word( when the cursor is next to 'y'. Similarly beginning (the letter b) of the word can be active for this function. Not a serious issue, but it's a very common shortcut and capitalizing is a frequent action while working on official documents with terms and names etc. Best regards, Zeki
Steps to Reproduce: 1. Tools -> Customize -> Keyboard -> bottom section "Category" => Format -> Sentence case. 2. Set a keyboard shortcut (I set Ctrl+Shift+G) 3. Write a sentence without capitalizing the first letter 4. Go to the end of the sentence 5. Do your shortcut keys for sentence caps. Observed: Nothing changes Expected: first letter gets capitalized 6. Put cursor in any word (such as between the "t" and "he" in the) 7. Do shortcut Observed/Expected: Capitalization changes.

to change shift+f3 like mentioned is very important for languages with a lot of capital letters (and used a lot in Mircrosoft word and not inLibre office writerbecause of reported bugs

still repro in 6.3, but may be it's an enhancement?
Since the current built-in behavior is not likely to be changed any time soon, I wrote a Basic macro for Cycle Case which honors the selection, autoselects only a single word when there is no selection, uses the current case of the selected text for a starting point instead of a counter, and can cycle the case of word the user just typed (including when there is already a space between it and the cursor). https://extensions.libreoffice.org/en/extensions/show/4036
