Behaviour confirmed 1.1.1a/Linux. I agree with the point that this is inconsistent. However if this is changed, it would become hard to enter acronyms (for example) in titles. Suppose that I have a title "The 1st annual BARF* meeting". I do not want it to be displayed as "The 1st Annual Barf Meeting" when I.convert it to Title case. Solving one problem creates a new one? :| * British Association for Rampaging Flowcharts ;) Reassigned to US Yes, good point on acronyms. Would it be possible to let users decide - for each style obviously - whether they want the selected Font Effect to affect capitalised words? A checkbox something like 'Include capitalised characters' would allow users to decide the behaviour; they will know the context of the effect they really want in each case. This would introduce consistent behaviour in the Font Effects dialog, but allow departure from this on a case-by-case basis. reassigned to es.
