Using regex , subst, substring or other to translate value to propercase
Hi Does somebody ever managed to change a tag-value to propercase/titlecase? For example Change: amsterdam into Amsterdam ? Searching the string with subst function and regex mostly works fine. Replace that search with a hardcoded or known stringvalue works fine Split the value with substring in two parts 1(a) and 2(msterdam) works fine. But I cannot come up with a way to change the small âaâ into a large âAâ (besides adding 26 rules to my style đ) Anybody any more ideas? Kind regards, Joris
Hi Joris I can't think of any way to do this, but it should be easy to implement more substitution filters like |upper, |lower, |initcap, |... Ticker On Mon, 2020-06-22 at 06:25 +0000, Joris Bo wrote:

Hi Ticker, Thanks for the answer. Your solution sounds great. This way it would also help people who like to do a non-casesensitive equation by first lowering the case of both values for example.

Hi Joris The substitution filters only work in the actions: highway=motorway {set ref='${ref|upper:""'} I'm not sure if these filters have to have a parameter separator. For the tag test you should already be able to do case-insensitive comparisons by using a regex: name~"^(?ui:abcd)$" {action} I think I've got this right; it should give a case-insensitive match of 'abcd' Ticker On Tue, 2020-06-23 at 08:45 +0000, Joris Bo wrote:
