[SOLVE] Capital letter after a dash and a space like "- "

Support
1

Hello,

currently, I use the action button to capitalize the characters after "(-_." and I would like to add the sequence dash + space like "- " so that for example

A new day yesterday - starship trooper (wurm)
becomes
A new day yesterday - Starship trooper (Wurm)

or that
Of scorpions & bells - the devil and me
becomes
Of scorpions & bells - The devil and me

but that

One africa (Independence cha-cha)
remains
One africa (Independence cha-cha)
because there is no space after the "-".

Is it possible or not and if so, how?

Thank you
Akhlan

Action of the type "Format value"
$regexp("A new day yesterday - starship trooper (wurm)",'\((.)','(\u$1')
= A new day yesterday - starship trooper (Wurm)
and another
$regexp("A new day yesterday - starship trooper (wurm)",' - (.)',' - \u$1')
=A new day yesterday - Starship trooper (wurm)

Thanks, but I have a lot of titles and I can't do an action for each of them one by one

Indeed.
And that is why you insert the property variable name instead of the string constant. The pattern should remain the same.
In your case I assume that you fiddle with the filename (which could be re-written much easier if you had the correct character cases in the fields) so it shoud look like
$regexp(%_filename%,'\((.)','(\u$1')

It's perfect, I took the second expression "$regexp("A new day yesterday - starship trooper (wurm)",' - (.)',' - \u$1')" and I adapted it to my case and everything is fine :wink:
