Incorrect Title Case Behavior With Quoted/Bracketed Text and After Colon (:)

[xianx]

The Chrome extension has inconsistent Title Case conversion when text is inside quotation marks, parentheses, or appears after a colon (:). Some words remain lowercase when they should be capitalized.

---

Issues Observed

1. Words inside quotes or parentheses are not converted correctly

Input:

"cats"
(cats)
"cats dogs"
(cats dogs)

Expected Title Case Output:

"Cats"
(Cats)
"Cats Dogs"
(Cats Dogs)

Actual Output:

"cats"        // unchanged
(cats)        // unchanged
"cats Dogs"   // partially changed
(cats Dogs)   // partially changed

Problem:
Words inside quotes/brackets are either not capitalized or only partially capitalized.

---

2. Words after a colon (:) do not capitalize properly

Input:

some point: this a description

Expected Output (Title Case):

Some Point: This a Description

Actual Output:

Some Point: this a Description

Problem:
The first word after a colon stays lowercase even though Title Case rules say it should be capitalized.

---

Expected Behavior

• Title Case should capitalize the first letter of every word, including words:

  • inside quotation marks
  • inside parentheses
  • appearing after punctuation such as :, (, ", '

---

Possible Cause

This seems related to how the extension uses the underlying change-case library.
The Title Case implementation might not be handling:

• punctuation boundaries
• word tokenization around quotes/brackets
• capitalization of the first word after delimiters

---

Environment

• Chrome Extension: Change Case
• Issue found on: 2.6.1

---

Request

Please update the Title Case logic to properly handle:

• words wrapped in quotes/brackets
• words immediately following colon or similar punctuation

This will make the extension behave consistently with standard English Title Case rules.
