AnyCase App Documentation

Most users are familiar with installing apps on Windows. For them, the process will be familiar, as it follows the standard procedure for adding applications to enhance Windows functionality. The AnyCase App is compatible with Windows 11, 10, 8.1, 8.

Many AnyCase users are in the business sector; the app is designed so that anyone requiring case conversion functionality can easily add and install it without needing administration privileges (from v5.22 and above).

Installation Steps (Video goes over all steps)

1. Download the latest version of AnyCase App
2. Click the downloaded file to start the installation
3. Follow the steps in the wizard
4. Wait for the installation to finish
5. Test:  Select any editable text and test a conversion

AnyCase uses Windows shortcuts to convert text between Uppercase, Title Case, Sentence Case, and Lowercase. To use a shortcut, like Win+Alt+U for example, to change the text to uppercase, you will need to:

1. First, select the text.
2. Then, with the text selected, press these three buttons at the same time.

An easy way to remember the case conversion shortcuts is that they all start with the Windows key + Alt Key, or in short Win + Alt and the first letter of the change you want to be performed (when possible). For example, Win+Alt+U will change the text case to Uppercase.

Win+Alt+U = Uppercase
Win+Alt+T = Title Case
Win+Alt+S = Sentence Case
Win+Alt+L = Lowercase
Win+Alt+A = Alternating Caps
Win+Alt+O = Opens Apps Main Window

You can add or customize the shortcuts in the settings area.
There you can define shortcuts for:

• Open Window Command
• Context Menu
• Title Case APA
• Convert To Superscript
• Convert To Normalize Superscript/Subscript
• Convert To Subscript
• Camel Case
• Kebab Case
• Snake Case
• Toggle Case
• Alternating Caps
• Remove Text Style
• Count Word
• Remove Extra Spaces
• Magic Paste
• Flip Language

Being able to convert case using a context menu is one of the more powerful features of AnyCase; it opens up the ability to perform conversions directly in any program using a context menu. For this method, you don’t need to remember any shortcuts. Here are the steps to use the context menu to change capitalization:

1. First, select your text
2. Hold the Shift key on your keyboard, then press the right-click button on your mouse

This will bring up a context menu dedicated to case conversions, with options for uppercase, lowercase, sentence case, etc. On the right, you can see an example of the context menu in action on X (Formerly Twitter). Remember, this option will work in all supported applications in the same way.

To bring up the context menu in any program you normally press the right-click button of the mouse, to bring up the dedicated case conversion menu of AnyCase hold the Shift key before pressing the right-click.

The options available on the context menu are:

• Uppercase
• Lowercase
• Title Case
• Title Case APA
• Sentence Case
• More Cases
  • Convert To Superscript
  • Convert To Normalize Superscript/Subscript
  • Convert To Subscript
  • Camel Case
  • Kebab Case
  • Snake Case
  • Toggle Text Case
  • Alternating Caps
• Flip Language
• Add To Custom Capitalization
• Activate Quick Replace Presets
  • Clear Preset
  • All Spaces To Underscores
  • All Underscores To Spaces
  • All Spaces To Hyphens
  • All Hyphens To Spaces
  • Remove All Spaces
• Magic Paste
  • Paste
  • What is it? (help)
• More
  • Count Selected Words
  • Clear Text Styling
  • Remove double spaces

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 when you need to scan through your document and change capitalization in multiple locations. Simply leave the window in a comfortable location and begin working through the entire document, swiftly performing case conversions.

Converting text to Superscript or Subscript is identical to the other conversion options, similar to converting from lowercase to uppercase, the process is as follows:

1. Select the section of text you would like to convert to Superscript or Subscript.
2. The conversion itself can be performed using one of three methods:
   • When using the interface, choose either Superscript or Subscript depending on the conversion you would like to perform.
   • When using the context menu, select “More Cases.” A submenu will open with the ability to choose either Superscript or Subscript.
   • Define custom shortcuts in Settings > Custom Shortcuts. Use the shortcut you define to quickly convert to Superscript or Subscript.
3. Click, and you’re done!

How to Normalize text that have been changed to Superscript or Subscript back to normal text?

If you want to change text that was converted to Superscript or Subscript back to normal text, the process is the same with one difference, It is recommended to select a few more characters to the left and to the right of the Superscripted or Subscripted text to ensure complete normalization.

As we work on projects, there are some words that need to be capitalized in a custom way, such as business names, personal names, product names, etc. This is where this feature comes in handy. You can easily select a word and, using the context menu (Shift + mouse right-click), add words you would like to have custom capitalization.

To add a word to custom capitalization, either write the word exactly as you want it capitalized or select an already capitalized word; then press Shift + mouse right-click, and select “Add to custom capitalization” from the dropdown menu.

Another way to add or remove words from custom capitalization is to open the settings and manage the desired keywords there.

A comma will indicate the end of a word set for custom capitalization in a list or short sentence.

This highly requested feature allows you to switch languages after you have already started typing, a common issue for bilingual and multilingual individuals. You might start typing while looking at the keyboard, but when you look up, you realize the keyboard is set to the wrong language.

As with any other conversion process, start by selecting the section of text you’ve typed in the wrong language. Then select the language you intended the text to be written in. For example, selecting “HEB >> ENG” will convert text from Hebrew to English.

This feature lets you paste copied text into fields that block it. To the right, you can see an example: in the first attempt, I am using the normal paste function of Google Chrome, but nothing happens. On the second try, I use the Magic Paste option of the AnyCase App to paste the same text without a problem.

Whenever you encounter a field that blocks you from pasting text you copied to your clipboard (like in the example), you can use this feature to bypass the block.

The “How Many Words” feature is a word counter. It counts the number of words in the selected text, as well as the number of characters, both including and excluding spaces.

To use this feature:

1. First, select your text.
2. Hold the Shift key on your keyboard, then press the right-click button on your mouse.
3. Select the “How Many Words” option from the context menu

You will be presented with:

• The number of words in the selected text.
• The number of characters in the selected text, including spaces.
• The number of characters in the selected text, excluding spaces.
