What option should be chosen in the In-place MText editor to ensure that letters automatically appear in uppercase?

1. Choose the All Caps option in the right-click menu

2. Select the capitalization toggle in the formatting bar

3. Change the text style to bold

4. Set the font to a type that is all caps

The correct answer is: Choose the All Caps option in the right-click menu

Choosing the All Caps option in the right-click menu of the In-place MText editor allows you to transform all selected text characters to uppercase instantly. This feature is particularly useful when you want to maintain the same font and formatting for your text while altering its appearance without having to retype or manually adjust each letter. Selecting this option ensures that any lower case letters in your text will appear as upper case, maintaining readability and uniformity in document design, especially when emphasizing headings or important points in your drawings. This method is direct and efficient, allowing for quick modifications to text appearance based solely on visual style preferences rather than altering the underlying text data. The other options may not achieve the desired outcome of converting letters to uppercase effectively. For instance, the capitalization toggle can be less intuitive or may not apply universally to all selected text, while changing the text style to bold applies a different stylistic effect that does not influence capitalization. Additionally, altering the font to one that is inherently all caps may limit typographic choices and design variety, whereas the All Caps option maintains flexibility in text styling.
