I've come across a problem in Photoshop I've never experienced in my several years experience with Photoshop.

For some reason, my text is stuck in cap's. It's possible one of the cats walked across the keyboard when I had Photoshop open. I just don't know. The other day I was working on some graphic, and next thing you know, everything I typed was in Cap's, and it's not my shift lock that is stuck. Everywhere else I type is normal, as you can see here. Does anyone know what might have happened, and short of uninstalling and reinstalling does anyone know how I can fix it?

I'm sure you've already checked this, but could it be the font that it's set in right now? I know that some fonts are all caps, no matter what you type. Other than that, I've never seen that issue before?

No, I've tried several different fonts and they all type in cap's only. The funny thing, is when I see the type in my layers box, it appears the way I typed it, but everything is only in caps, and only on Photoshop. This started on Saturday.

I did a quick search, someone said they fixed it by clicking
CTRL SHFT K (but in CS that brings up something different)

I figured it out. I just had to go to text properties and there was a box that was pushed down that set it to caps locks. I just right clicked on the text tool and went to properties to get to it-- for anyone else who may stumble onthis problem.
or on the T that comes up when you click the text T on the tool menu, right click and click reset

Having a quick look through the options:



click the button I highlighted on the right which will bring up the text options box (left / centre) and click the box highlighted there

That is exactly what happened. I must have clicked that by accident, and gave myself cap's. I am so used to the cats doing something to mess up things on my computer, that I thought it was something they did, and instead it was more than likely me. Thanks.
