Mark313 Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 This is a minor bug that has bothered me since first using Publisher a year ago. I was hoping the newest version would correct it but it did not. When using the text tool to type in an uppercase C, as soon as I add a period after it it changes to lowercase. This does not happen if at the beginning of a new sentence but it does in all other cases, such as an initial for a last name (such as Mark C.). Even odder is that this appears to be the only letter that this strange occurrence happens. I am using Windows 10 Home and Publisher version 1.9.0.932 Thank you, Mark C.

Joachim_L Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Welcome to the Affinity forums @Mark313! What language are you using for your text frame. You can look this e.g. in the Character panel. When you go to Preferences >> Auto-Correct, maybe ".C" is inside this dictionary?

Mark313 Posted February 22, 2021 Author Share Posted February 22, 2021 I am using English (United States). I'm assuming you meant maybe "C." (not ".C") is inside the Auto-Correct dictionary, and no it is not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, sorry this is what I meant and double-sorry, because I think carl123 has the correct solution.
