auto capitalize after quotes
this is something i have yet to figure out. im as we speak working on a book, and it would be nice if the autoformatting in open office would see quote marks (") as characters which do not effect the auto capitalizing settings. any thoughts on this?

Unless I'm misunderstanding what you're doing with the quotation marks, I haven't noticed anything unusual. I tried entering (into OO v2.0) the text: Code:
this is sample text. this is "new" sample text. "wow" he said. Code:
this is sample text. This is “new” sample text. “wow” he said. Not sure if that's what you are looking for. Turning autocapitalization off is about the first thing I do. Entering text into tables in word processors that autocapitalize will drive you batty -- especially when you're writing documentation for systems where case sensitivity is important. Does turning it off entirely help in your situation? |
ok my fault for being inarticulate.
open office sees: "this program wont capitalize a new sentance in quotes." AnimaSola would like "Open office will see the next letter after the quote as the first in a sentance. becuse it is." it's not that this is overly annoying, but as i say, im writing a book. and in a sequence with a conversation, this would be a lot less tedium |

I'm afraid I haven't written any word processor macros since the Word 6 era. You ought to check the site http://www.ooomacros.org/ to see what might have been posted there. In particular, check "Andrew Brown's Macros". That entry looked like it might be of interest to you. (The "Macro Library How-To" looks interesting, too.) Good luck with your writing... RT |
