SDL Language Cloud MT Capitalisation

Question

This one has been bugging me for a while... 
 Language Cloud MT does not copy over segment capitalisation when offering a translation - by that I mean when the entire segment is capitalised (titles, etc...) 
 Memsource MT on the other hand does copy the capitalisation in its proposed translation... 
 I work on FR<>EN... 
 Am I missing something?

Hi Guillame Pacteau 
 memsource uses Microsoft Translator I believe which you can also use in Studio and retain your caps: 
 
 It does look like a problem with SDL Language Cloud MT so I have logged with support and will let you know when I know more. In the meantime if you want to use MS Translator you can find the plugin here:

Hi Guillame Pacteau , 
 
ok - while I'm waiting to hear from support here's a tip, in case you didn't know this already? Selecting all the text in the target segment and pressing Shift+F3 works like MS Word. So you can switch case quickly.
