First Letter Of Each Word Uppercase changes second sign

[Forez]

If a user selects a file with an extension that starts not with a letter but with a digit, like (for example) 7Z, then using the

Multi Rename > Case > First Letter Of Each Word Uppercase

option will turn e.g.

Code: Select all

test name.7z

into

Code: Select all

Test Name.7Z

i.e. it will literally do what it says which is to look for the first letter in extension - thus it will affect the second sign, because it disregards the first character due to it not being a letter

Whether this was intentional or not, I would argue that most users would expect to see (here comes another example)

Code: Select all

Test Name.3dsx

and not

Code: Select all

Test Name.3Dsx

after performing this change on

Code: Select all

test name.3dsx

file


Therefore I suggest renaming that option to First Sign Of Each Word Uppercase and change its behavior accordingly - or alternatively add such option as a new one to the list of already available ones

What about "First letter of each word uppercase, extension lowercase"
Works fine for me in FC XE 903

But sometimes (but very rarely) there is a need in - invert case ( was "InVert" - after the transformation it became "iNvERT" )

By the way, for greater clarity (as is done in the Russian translation), it would be possible to make the language strings as follows:
61123=No change
61124=all lowercase
61125=ALL UPPERCASE
61126=NAME UPPERCASE.*
61127=name lowercase.*
61128=*.EXTENSION UPPERCASE
61129=*.extension lowercase
61130=First Letter Of Each Word Uppercase
61131=Name First Letter Of Each Word Uppercase.extension lowercase
61132=First letter uppercase
61133=Upper first letter following any of defined characters:

I concur that this would be useful - but it deserves a separate topic:

As for my propositions of either renaming the

Multi Rename > Case > First Letter Of Each Word Uppercase

to

Multi Rename > Case > First Sign Of Each Word Uppercase

and changing its behavior accordingly; or alternatively leaving that first one as it is but adding as new entry this second one:

what do you think about it, Marek?
