Case Element

Determines the case of a shape's text.

All capital (uppercase) letters (1) and initial capital letters (2) do not change the appearance of text that was entered in all capital letters. The text must be entered in lowercase letters for these options to show an effect.

Syntax

<Case
    [Unit]
    [F]
    [Err]>
</Case>

Attributes

Optional string. Represents a unit of measure. The default is NUM. For details about NUM, see Units of measure.

F

Optional string. Represents the element's formula. This attribute can contain one of the following strings: "someFormula" if the formula exists locally, "No Formula" if the formula is locally deleted or blocked, or "Inh" if the formula is inherited.

If the attribute is not present, the element's formula is a simple constant, for example, <element>5</element>.

Err

Optional string. Indicates that the formula evaluates to an error. The value of Err is the current value (an error message string); the value of the element is the last valid value.
