uppercase and lowercase

[ziomangrovia]

If I turn on caps lock key and I decide to type some letter in lowercase, in Windows I can press shift while caps lock is always turned on while in OSX It doesn't work.

Can I type lowercase letters while caps lock is turned on?

Apparantly not it seems. I could be wrong of course..... probably am.
Why not just press the caps lock key again and return back to normal?

According to another forum, it's only possible on a French Keyboard Layout!??

Because I need to write many uppercase characters and few lowercase ones

But if using the Shift key does not work, that's your only option, isn't it?

No. While the Windows shift key operates more like a toggle, the Mac shift key types only uppercase characters. It has always been this way. Because I grew up with Macs, the Windows behavior bothers me and I have to adjust when I’m using Windows. You will just have to adjust for the Mac.
