FM2019 Find/Change 'clone case' not working when found text is all-caps

Windows 10 system

Framemaker 2019 Release 15.0.5.838 (where I saw this first happen today)

Framemaker 2019 Release Version 15.0.6.956 (checked for updates, found this one, applied, problem still occurs)

 

Problem: The 'clone case' option in Find/Change is not working properly when the text being found is in all-caps.

 

In the sequence of screenshots below, I did three 'find' operations for different words.

Both the 'find' and 'change' values were entered in lower case.

'Clone Case' was selected.

 

I've highlighted the conversions that are wrong, or may be wrong (I'm not sure what the behaviour is supposed to be for those that I did in ransom-note-case :-))

 

But the first one highlighted in each case (ALLCAPS) is definitely converting incorrectly (alllower).


Am I misinterpreting this, or is this a known issue, or should I register it as a bug?

 

Thanks!

    Hi JaggedPeak:

     

    I played with this when you first posted, and had the same issues. This is not how I remember clone case working in earlier versions but it's been years since I needed to actually use it. I'm thinking that it is not working correctly and that it's worth reporting on Tracker.
