    Default AutoCAPS for Single Line and Attribute Text

    Summary: AutoCAPS options for DTEXT and Attribute Text

    Description: I would like AutoCAD to have the AutoCAPS option that is available in MText available for Single Line Text and Attribute Text.

    How Used: This would allow the user to set the Caps Lock function in AutoCAD without having to use the Caps Lock key, which also affects other Windows applications.
    Many users work in AutoCAD, Word and Outlook all at the same time. In AutoCAD, most users prefer to have Caps Lock on at all times. In Word and Outlook (emails) Caps Lock is not the norm.

    Put it in the options under the general tab.
    Make absolutely everything, including dimensions, in caps.

    This would get my vote for first choice.

    Wow, that's painful. I've gotten so used to using Caps Lock that my finger seems to press it of it's own accord when I need something in all CAPS. It's about as smooth as hitting SHIFT or TAB or ENTER.
