Auto-substitution of small letters for big letters...

I am translating a document with lots of what is actually 100% matches - BUT because the original match was with initial capital letter and the rest small letters and the new segment is the same BUT in large letters - the match becomes app a 90% match instead..

Is there really no way to have Studio automatically substitute small for big letters and count is a 100% match?

  • No, but you could use an AutoHotkey script to quickly select the entire segment, change it to uppercase and confirm it. 

    You can try this:

    !z:: ;Pressing Alt+Z triggers the script

    Send ^a

    Sleep 200

    Send +{F3}

    Sleep 200

    Send ^{Enter}

    Return

    If you're not familiar with AutoHotkey, follow these instructions:

    First, download AutoHotkey (www.autohotkey.com) and install it. Once installed, you won't see anything open, that's normal. AutoHotkey runs in the background and allows you to run your own scripts (macros), which are created in plain text editors, such as Notepad or Notepad++.

    To use the script above:

    1. Go to a folder in Windows Explorer where you would like to save your script (I have a folder called AutoHotkey Scripts just to keep them all in one place). Right-click on an empty space in the folder and select New-AutoHotkey Script. Give a name to your script and save it.

    2. Right-click on the script and select Open, then open it with a text editor, such as Notepad (I prefer Notepad++, available for free).

    3. Once the file is open, you will see that there's already some text in it. Paste the script code below the existing text.

    4. Save the file. Now double-click the file, and this will load the script. Look for a green square with a white H in it in your system tray, which indicates that the script is active.

    5. Now that the script is active, press your hotkey (Alt+Z in this case) to trigger the actions in the script.
