Solve : Unwanted capital letters on new line of text? |
|
Answer» Whenever I am typing a text, the first letter of the first word on the next line is automatically capitalized. How to prevent this plse? On the Tools menu, click AutoCorrect. I don't think it's a question of new sentences; they start after a period. Guzeppi SEEMS to be saying that unwanted and incorrect capital letters are appearing at the start of each new line. I wonder if he is used to typewriters where you have to press the Return KEY to move down to a new line. If you start a new line in Word by pressing Enter, Word thinks you are making a list, or starting a new paragraph, and (correctly) capitalizes the first letter of whatever you type on the new line. If this is so, Guzeppi, you just have to remember that in word processing you don't have to do anything when you are nearing the end of a line, you just CARRY on typing and Word will move down to the next line when it decides that what you have just typed won't fit on the line. You press Enter (twice) to start a new paragraph or once if you are typing something like a list or address. Depends on the version of Word, but if it's a fairly RECENT version and you hold your cursor over that auto-capitalized letter, you'll get a little menu below it (see attached image). Here, you have 3 options: 1. Undo Automatic Capitalization: This will undo this one instance of capitalization, but further similar actions will be auto-corrected. 2. Stop Auto-capitalizating First Letter of Sentences: This will stop the auto-capitalization behavior for the entire document. It will not do it again until you re-enable the option. 3. Control AutoCorrect Options...: This takes you to all the auto-correct options. This same procedure works with any auto-correct function. [year+ old attachment DELETED by admin] |
