Question Disable auto-capitalization for just a style

I'm creating a new custom style to be used for code snippets. It's using Courier New, light gray highlight, etc.

I'm looking for a way to disable the automatic capitalization of the first letter of the first word, only when I'm using this style.

For example, when I start using this new style and type "sudo su", it should remain "sudo su" and not be changed to "Sudo su"



Is this possible?

As far as I know, what you are asking is not possible. However, note that you can press Ctrl+Z to Undo the capitalization immediately after it has been applied.

Alternatively, you can add the words that you don't want to capitalize to the exceptions list: Click File tab | Options | Proofing | AutoCorrect Options. On the AutoCorrect tab, click the Exceptions button. (Of course, this assumes that you have a list of known exceptions.)
