Summary0017769: Change case feature like in LibreOffice
DescriptionCurrently, Scribus only has an illusion of case change, and there are only two options that come with OTF font (I guess).

It does not actually change the case of the text. Once you remove that effect, the case reverts back to as it was originally typed.

LibreOffice has a nice feature to actually change case to, like, uppercase, lowercase, and more.

We already have "Item > Text Features".

We could add

Item >
  Text Transformation >
    lowercase
    UPPERCASE
    Sentence case
    Capitalize Every Word
    tOGGLE cASE


Are there more?

Edit: add sentence case

Yes. That would be nice. And if it could be on the context menu like the latest spellcheck, that be even nicer (if you people think it is a right place for case change options)

"Are there more?"
The ones you listed would be enough for now, IMO.

LO has two more: Cycle Case and Sentence case.

I'd prefer not to have it in the context menu.
It would be in a sub menu anyway.

I would suggest that the fast way to access it would then be the Action search.

I agree. Having the festure is more important.

Thank you for the quick action. It works.
