InDesign can convert anything to sentence case.

So, yes, if you change the last line in the script (the one that refers to ChangecaseMode) to

ChangecaseMode.SENTENCECASE

the script should do what you need.

Check out this script:

http://www.id-extras.com/convert-paragraph-to-real-all-caps-indesign

As is, it converts all text (based on para style) to all caps, but if

you want to change to title case, just modify the last line to

ChangecaseMode.TITLECASE

I'm having trouble getting this script to work in InDesign CC 2015. I want to changes titles that have been written in ALL CAPS - this not as a style - and change to Sentence case. Any suggestions would be helpful!
