Re: [libreoffice-users] auto capitalizing after quotes.

Hi,

Not really a fix, but something you could try...

You can add an auto correct entry that will transform a sequence of,
for example "a to "A (you would also need to add all the letters). For
the closing quote, the sequence would be ." a which would become ." A.
Since it is auto correct, you would need to place a space after the
letter when you type and then erase (typing sequence:
"a<space><backspace>). The one advantage is you can control the
capitalization: typing "abc would remain as "abc, while
"a<space><backspace>bc would become "Abc.

I hope this helps.

Rémy.
