moonliner Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 For the first time I tried typing an entire page in Publisher rather than importing and editing. I found that the program randomly inserts Capitalized words, (just the first letter). I first noticed several of these after the fact and though it was typing errors, but I watched the screen closely, and as I typed the phrase "several times a day" I saw the lower case d change to a capital D a split second after I typed it.

jasonhuck Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 I can confirm this has been happening to me the last few days. The document I'm working on contains a lot of objects imported from other sources. Mostly PDFs generated from Sketch, in case that's a clue.

That might keep it from happening, but if so, there's still a problem, because it's Capitalizing every few words right in the Middle of sentences for no Obvious reason that I can see.

occasionalpiece Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Just wanted to add my .02: I also see random capitalization. Both times have been after punctuation (comma) or after a fraction (1/2). Wondering if those trigger a capitalization? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

occasionalpiece Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 Like... A..or an.. I??? Not doing reports or that type of writing...can only report what I see. But that is intriguing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonliner Posted February 5, 2019 Author Share Posted February 5, 2019 Looks like they are aware and fixing it with next update. Today I was typing a hyphenated double word and the capital appeared on the first word when I started typing the second! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetasig Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 Confirm, but it's not as random for me as I thought. For example, every time I type in a text box the letter (capital) "I" (eye) followed by another word, the word after "I" is capitalized. Example "I Had a great time", "Funny that, I Don't like that type of sandwich" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonliner Posted February 7, 2019 Author Share Posted February 7, 2019 I guess they are fixing it. I now have capitals pop up on a previous word after hitting spacebar when I begin typing the next word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
