4.11 SORTING OUT CAPITALS

Capitals can be a bit of a worry if you can’t see the screen, but there are ways of helping. Microsoft Word automatically puts a capital at the start of sentences, days of the week and some months.

Thunder will beep or quack when you press a Capital letter if you have "Beep for Capitals" checked in "Settings".

To hear if you’ve typed a capital letter press the LEFT or RIGHT ARROW. the higher pitch indicates a capital and a lower pitch a lower case letter if you have "Musical Tones" checked in "Settings".

To type a title, you would normally dab at the CAPSLOCK key so that your typing would appear in all capital letters. But Thunder uses the CAPSLOCK key for such things as spell-checking. There are three ways of producing blocks of capitals:

1) Type your title in lower case, select it, then press SHIFT F3.

2) Type the title in lower case. Select it. Dab at the ALT key and press O. Then press E then ENTER. Your title will be in capitals. Before pressing E, you could explore other ways of presenting the title by ARROWING UP and DOWN. Press the RIGHT ARROW to take off the selection.

3) You could just hold down the SHIFT key as you type each letter.
