Hi Guys,

This is just a small thing really, but over the years using all 3 versions of Studio, I've often thought it would be very useful to have a shorter way of changing the case of a word or phrase while in the editing view of a translation. I recently upgraded to 2014 and see that it hasn't really improved much in this area, you still have to do some navigating and clicking before you get the various options (i.e. click Advanced Tab, then Change Case).

Does anyone

Hi Guys,

This is just a small thing really, but over the years using all 3 versions of Studio, I've often thought it would be very useful to have a shorter way of changing the case of a word or phrase while in the editing view of a translation. I recently upgraded to 2014 and see that it hasn't really improved much in this area, you still have to do some navigating and clicking before you get the various options (i.e. click Advanced Tab, then Change Case).

Does anyone know of any way of highlighting a term or phrase and then linking a keyboard shortcut to get that menu (lowercase, UPPERCASE etc) to pop up directly?

I though I read somewhere that Studio 2014 offered the capabilities of adding shortcuts for various actions.

Thanks!

That's exactly what I was looking for. I really need to study the list of short cuts it seems...

Many thanks Olly.
