U = Uppercase

How To Change Case Using A Context Menu?

How To Convert Case Using A The Application Window?
The AnyCase App window acts as a floating window that is always available. the AnyCase window floats above all other windows as you work, it is perfect for those moments you need to scheme through a document and change capitalization in multiple locations. Simply leave the window in a comfortable location and start hacking away through the entire document, as you fly through case conversions.
What Is Remove Styling And How It Works?
This function Is performed on text you already copied, in the case that you have copied formatted text and you want to paste it as plain text, clicking the button “clear text styling” will clear the formatting of the text you copied.
While Ctrl+Shift+V (the built in function for Windows to paste plain text) works on some applications, this clearing function will work for you in all applications, especially in cases Where the formatting persists and doesn’t get cleared, or when Ctrl+Shift+V doesn’t work, and doesn’t insert text at all.
The steps are as follows:
- Copy any text you would like To clear formatting for
- Press the clear Styling Text Button
- Paste in your desired location
AnyCase Settings
The settings Window of the program lets you adjust Several features of AnyCase App
Context Menu – Turning the context menu feature on/off
Shortcuts – Global Windows shortcuts feature on/off
Start Minimize – Start AnyCase directly to Windows Trey
Start with Windows – Select whether the AnyCase program should start with Windows or not (on/off)
Custom Word Capitalization* – Enter any words that you would like to be strictly capitalized in this field, separated by a comma (,) What is commonly referred to as a comma separated list.
Is a powerful feature of AnyCase, it makes it possible to define words that you want capitalized in a specific way for example, your name, brand with a specific capitalization (e.g. FedEx, Microsoft, FDA, SpaceX), or your company name.
Keep Acronyms* – When this feature is turned on AnyCase will try to identify any acronyms that you have capitalized in the selected text to be converted, and ignore the acronyms in the conversion.
Alternative Conversion Method – If you encounter issues converting in-place in a particular program, or if the results of the conversions in a specific program is not consistent, use this alternative in-place conversion method, this increases the amount of programs any case supports but at the price that it’s significantly slower, we recommend activating these feature only if you encounter issues.
* Note: this feature only works on Sentence Case, and Title Case. When converting to uppercase and lowercase AnyCase assumed your intent is to completely convert the text to that capitalization style.
