Text tool is stuck in ALL CAPS mode

I am attempting to create a simple, mostly text logo, and when I attempt to use the TEXT TOOL, the settings seem to be stuck in ALL CAPS MODE.
I can't even see an option to change the text settings at all -- to adjust anything font-related (aside from what's on the default tool bar). For now, I must resolve this ALL CAPS issue, at the very least; I would also like to adjust any & all other standard font settings, including character spacing, kerning, etc.
Can someone please point me in the right direction? Thank you!!

Okay, head to Settings -> General -> Reset and tap Reset All Settings. See if that does any good. This will have no affect on the content stored on your device.

Text tool is stuck on one style

InDesign CS2: I've set character styles for a file. I highlight a style and then draw a text box, but when I type it jumps back to a different character style, (one that is reverse so I can't even see what I'm typing.) In PageMaker, all you had to do was click off the text tool, and change the style in the style list and all new text boxes would use that style. It won't now. How can I fix this?

Works for me.
With nothing selected, check your three style palettes to ensure that you are set to the desired styles. (Check the Object Style for Basic Text frame to ensure that you're not overriding your paragraph style there).
Generally, you set the default style you wish to use with nothing selected.
Make sure that when you are clicking off the text tool that you aren't inadvertently selecting a background text frame.
PS: Paragraph styles are better for default text style in a text frame. Use Character styles for special effects within the paragraph.

How to transform a text variable in PLD to all CAPS?

Dear Experts,
I have a text variable in my PLD and I will like to change this text to all upper case?
What is the function I can use to achieve this in PLD?
Warmest Regards,
Chinho

Hi Chinho,
PLD is a basic tool without the function you asked for. If you click on Formula Editor, you will find only less than 10 string operations are supported. You may use UDF with FMS by Upper function from SQL to achieve your goal.
Thanks,
Gordon

Trying to create bookmarks but the text is in all caps

We need to make bookmarks in a pdf. The previous versions of Acrobat (we upgraded to XI Pro) we could highlight text on a pdf, click bookmarks and the bookmark title would appear. Unfortunately the text is in all caps. If it possible to set it up so text won’t be in all caps?
The solution is to manually retype each bookmark from all cps to regular text. But if there is a workaround Id love to hear it.
Thanks.

Organize Bookmarks was renamed to '''Show All Bookmarks''' back in the Firefox 4.0 version.
Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks or { Ctrl + Shft + B }
BTW, you will need to '''restore''' that JSON backup file, import is for HTML bookmarks files that were exported from a web browser.

Yellow boxes behind all caps text

I had a Quark 6 Mac file converted to ID CS3 Win using Q2ID and when I opened it I replaced the fonts with our own, however wherever the text had the all caps feature used in Quark (I guess) there are yellow boxes behind the letters. I can get rid of them only by selected the text and clicking off the All caps (TT button).
Is there another easier way to keep them as all caps and get rid of yellow boxes?

You have highlight substituted glyphs enabled in your composition

Text Tool won't work

My text tool is "stuck" on horzontal text tool in PSE10, and any attempt to change results in program crash. I cannot even "reset" all tools without triggering the fatal crash (it's telling me that "ATMLIB.dll" is not a valid Windows file).
I've got Win 7 and more then enough resources to run the software. Actually it ran just fine until recently. Is ATMLIB possibly pointing to a font issue?
I've reloaded the software from scratch (that is I've de-installed, and re-installed it now a couple of times). I've reloaded it and used the regirstration code from Adobe's "my products."
It only seems to happen when trying to select the text tool.
Any ideas? (I did post another message pointing to the DLL but I'm now more suspecious that it might be a font or registration issue.)
I've wasted days trying to resolve this, any help would be appreciated.
thanks.

Did you read my last post in your other thread?
Pse 10 needs a good copy of the amtlib.dll in system 32 or the text tool won't function.
Yours might be corrupted.

Typing in all caps

Hi all
for some reason in some of my templates the i can only type in caps, unless i make a new text box. Any help?

Could tell you for sure if you let us know what template you are talking about, but I would guess that it is because the default text box is set to All Caps. To change it go to Format Menu>Font>Capitalization>None.
Let me know if this fixed it for you. If it didn't, let us know what template you are experiencing this problem in.

New iMac typing in all caps/symbols issue

Hello, I have a new iMAC purchased in October, 2014. About a month after using it I noticed it began typing in all caps or symbols instead of numbers. Whether I was online, using Word, Entourage etc. Checked online for others with same issue, did the Command +R...or restarted the computer and that would work for a couple of days, then back to all caps. I checked the battery, mouse/keyboard settings-everything was as it should be. So I called Apple Support and they sent me a new keyboard/mouse, worked for 2 days then the same thing started happening. Checked all setting again, seems like the left/right button were reversed in wireless keyboard settings so that the right button opened an icon and the left button gave options instead of vice versa. So changed that, again the mouse/keyboard worked ok for a few days now it's back to the same thing, all caps. Haven't had the symbols reappear though. Does anyone know why this is happening? I am thinking of restoring to factory settings and importing my files and such again to see if that will help...unless someone has a better idea or know the cause of this?
Thanks in advance

My text tool is all in capital letters even though caps lock is off.

My text tool is all in capital letters even though the caps lock button is off. Also I cannot click on the set fond style button. What seems to be the problem?

Hi Neale --
I am having the exact same issue, and it's a problem with any & all fonts I've tried. Of course, my keyboard's CAPS LOCK feature is OFF -- and I've tried many different font styles, nearly all of which allow for standard, non-ALL-CAPS usage.
I'm intending to use Century Gothic for the work I'm doing right now, but it's been an ongoing issue for at least a few weeks -- but I know I never had an issue with this before recently. (Note that I typically don't use or need the text tool for most of the photo editing work that I do w/PSE, so I'm not sure how long this has been an issue.)
In addition, I would like to access other font-setting-related features, like kerning, character spacing, small caps, & other adjustments, etc. -- but I don't see ANYWHERE within the program (or on this forum...or online) how to adjust these relatively standard settings.
Please help

My caps lock is off so why is my text in ps cs6 typing in all caps?

Im working on a poster that needs to get done asap but all my lettering are in caps. I tested my caps lock and they are off so why is everything still in caps? All the settings are the same as they were when I lasted opened it and there were no problems. How can I fix this issue?

Open the Window - Character panel and look to see if the little TT button is pressed. Settings are sticky, so perhaps you used that function before.
You can reset the entire Text tool by right-clicking in the tool icon...

Changing all caps text to lower case in PSE 7 ?

I have PSE 7.0, and am trying to add text to an image. When I add the text, and type it in all in
lower case, the text appears in all capitals, in text layer, and changing
my keyboard caps lock doesn't make any difference.
However, in the layers summary box on the right side of screen, the text appears in lower case - but when I save, or print etc, it always shows in all capitals!
Does anyone know any more about text editing in PSE 7.0?
Thanks so much!
Sasha

First of all be sure the font you're using has small letters and not just caps. If it does, then click the tiny triangle at the far left of the options bar and choose Reset Tool.

How can I get the Cover Flow text to be in all caps

I've only had one problem with the Cover Flow application for iTunes. All of my track names, artists, and album names are in caps on my library. When I switch to the Cover Flow view some songs are displayed with all caps, while others have the song and album in caps, but the artist is in lower case.
I've gone through all of my files and all of them have been correctly entered in all caps, yet Cover Flow still does not display them correctly. I've even gone through every album, got info, and made sure everything was in all caps. Still no succcess.
Any suggestions?
How about creating an option button to control Cover Flow's functioning on the next iTunes version? That would be nice.

Thanks, jere7my.
In other words, I should always make changes to my song text with the Cover Flow view selected.
I would never have the Cover Flow view selected while importing new albums, tracks, and artwork. I switched back to it after I was done personalizing my stuff. Thats when I started to notice they were still in lower case, even though I had changed them.

Text tool not working in photoshop CC, all I can see are small boxes event with giant font

Hi there,
I am not sure what is going on here. I cannot get the Text to show up using the Text tool. All I can see are tiny boxes even made the font 60 points. SHould be huge. Been happening for more than a week and I ran an update via the cloud just last night. Did not fix it yet. Ideas?

I find Points are not the most predictable unit to use for text, and p[refer a linear size like inches or mm. Have a look at your image size. If it has a very high pixel size, together with a low dpi (72) then that would give you what you are seeing. If your image size is 4 inches by 8 inches, then regardless of what the dpi is, if you used inches instead of points for text sizing, then you would know to expect 2 inch text to be one quarter the hieght of your document.
Does that make sense?

Text Field All Caps?

I'm making an application form and prefer some of the fields to appear in all caps when a user types in information. Is there any way to make text fields font all caps? I looked under the font options but can only change the font, make things bold, italicized, underlined and a different size. Thanks!

There are two methods to convert a field to UpperCase. Both are used on the Exit event, and JavaScript language should be selected.
this.rawValue = this.rawValue.toUpperCase();
or,
var uc = TextField1.rawValue;
TextField1.rawValue = uc.toUpperCase();
I hope this helps.

Text Entry Field All Caps?

Is there a way to make the text entry field show all caps as an end user types?
Thank you,
cgoebel

Hi Lilybiri,
When you say "after submitting", what does that mean? I need the text to show as all caps as the end user is typing...and can then retain it if the lesson requires using the Retain Text property.
And since this may be possible via JavaScript, anyone have the script to share?
Thank you,
cgoebel
