Capitalization of branded application name

Post by Fred »

I had a request (twice, actually) from a registered user saying I should make the branded version of UVK display [Company Name] Repair Tool instead of [Company Name] repair tool. The user claims the way it is currently is not correct English.

I just wanted to know if no one objects to this change. It will only affect "Branding" licensed users.

Thanks.
One thing we humans have in common is that we are all different. So, if you think you're weird because you're different from everyone else, then we are all weird.

Either way is fine with me. I personally think not claiming the same version has two different improvements is more important :)

It is not "Can it be done?" but rather, "How can we do it?"

I don’t know about the proper English thing as it’s obvious I’m not a writer but I always thought it would look better in caps but it wasn’t that important to me to bring it up. So, I like the idea. :)

I just asked my wife, the proof reader and she says it should be "Repair Tool."

However, like Bill said and I said previously... either way works for me.... don't really care :)

It would be technically more correct as, in this context, the "Repair Tool" becomes part of a proper name of the software we're using.

So, yeah: +1

Ok, thank you all for your replies. The change will be applied in the next update.
