In macOS, all labels in menu items must be capitalised. The context menus in Obsidian, like right-clicking on a note in the files view, have mixed formatting. The application menu for example looks correct. Apple seems to use Chicago or MLA to decide what to capitalise. Some examples: “Move file …

Thanks. Please, open a feature request for this. Writing | Apple Developer Documentation .

Why did you move it from “Bug Reports” to “Help” if it should be in “Feature Requests”? Is this not the place for reports like this? If we need a linked Apple guidance page for this, it’d be “Design/Components/Menus and Actions” (I’m not allowed to post links), it specifically mentions using title c…

The menus in the menu bar use Title case on Mac, afaik :blush: . On the other hand, the link WhiteNoise shared highlights: Title or sentence case. Decide whether you want to use title case or sentence case for alerts, page titles, headlines, button labels, and links. Throughout the HIG, you’ll f…

Check the menu items for every single Apple Mac app. It all uses title case exclusively. It’s a typographic convention, not following it makes Obsidian look amateurish and out of place. The HIG do not make it a suggestion — for menu items, it’s an unambiguous point of the guidelines. The most highly…

So, do Obsidian developers actually check these posts or what are your customs here? Would I have to write a plugin myself to get this fixed if I want to use Obsidian?

Took me barely half an hour to put together a plugin that does this, following Chicago Manual of Style rules, including edge cases for quotes, English only. For you, it’d probably just be updating a localisation file. Irritatingly trivial to remedy. [CleanShot 2026-03-24 at 16.04.27@2x] [CleanSh…

Great! Please, open a thread in “share and showcase” for your plugin and post a link here to your plugin thread.
