Pls. change behaviour of "adaptcase="

Post by ThyMaster » Thu Jul 16, 2009 12:36 pm

Hi Folks,

please change the behaviour of "adaptcase=" parameter.
Currently it does one good and one bad thing at the same time (adaptcase=1):
:D Good thing: It changes titles, albums and artists from "The Dummy" to "Dummy, The" which makes it much easier to find
:evil: Bad thing: for whatever reason it also capitalizes every word of any string in TMS! Example: "ABBA" becomes "Abba" or "ABCDE" (used for alphanumeric sorting) turns into "Abcde". In 5.1.08RC it even capitalizes custom tree strings like "All of my titles" into "All Of My Titles".

Please leave the good thing active and disable the other behaviour in 5.1!

Thinks in advance
- TyyMaster

Hi

Plus one vote for the above from me; I certainly don't want capitalisation applied to any displayed text! As far as I am concerned, I see this as a bug and thus believe it needs fixing before any product launch. I can guarantee that people will complain about this, so it would be far better to address it now rather than later.

And another vote from me.

I want Dummy, The without having to put up with Abc.

Can I vote for it again, or is that breaking the rules? :D

Cool! In that case, I'll 'push the boat out' and vote for it a third time :D

Have a fab weekend!
