I understand that AppSheet is in the process of trying to improve its compliance with Googleโs โmaterial designโ standards. In that regard, Iโd like to point out a minor issue and ask if it has been considered.
First, hereโs the relevant information regarding capitalization:
And hereโs what I have in my app:
In the text that I can control myself, Iโm trying to follow material design standards but AppSheetโs defaults conflict with it. Has this matter been looked in to? In other words, is this something that hasnโt been noticed or has a decision already been made to keep things like this? Also, it would be nice to be able to control โApp Galleryโ and other text via the localize feature (see UX menu).
Sir, stay with our local language, then we don t need to worry about if the text is capitalize or not!!
Japanese, right! That is indeed one advantage of using Japanese. Capitalization is not an issue.
@Mike_Moss something to consider
I just noticed that the material design site itself is generally quite consistent about following its own rules, except when it comes to the site title :
Hi @Arthur_Rallu ! Hi @Mike_Moss !
As I have been working on improving my compliance with material design guidelines in my own app, Iโve been somewhat sensitized to capitalization recently. Iโm not sure if this is worth pointing out or not, but I just noticed that capitalization on the โMy appsโ page (and perhaps elsewhere) differs from the guidelines.
This is what the guidelines specify:
But, unless Iโm mistaken, this isnโt:
Personally, the โApp Galleryโ vs. โApp galleryโ issue is of much more concern than what I am pointing out here (which, I admit, is probably of super low priority). Iโm preparing documentation about all facets of my app and would prefer that any screenshots, etc. match the way the app is going to be used in the future. If โApp Galleryโ is going to be changed to โApp galleryโ it would be better for me if the change is sooner rather than later. Thanks!
Sorry to quote myself but Iโd like to make one more point about this. Currently, we donโt seem to be able to control the appearance of the โApp Galleryโ via โlocalize.โ In the past, a few of us have requested that the parameters that can be changed via localization be expanded. If โApp Galleryโ could be โlocalizedโ that would make it possible for creators to adjust capitalization and, importantly, use words from other languages that would be more meaningful to users who are not native speakers.
