Capital letters protected with {braces} displayed in lowercase #44

Closed gcabanac closed 6 years ago

This MWE featuring protected letters in the title of the reference outputs the letter ‘b’ of ‘beauties’ in lowercase. This shouldn't be the case AFAIK.

I compiled it with:

It seems to me that protection with braces worked as expected with the current versions of pdfTeX and biber as of mid-October 2017.

Am I missing something here?

Thank you.

Capitalizing whole words seems to work in this example.

bibLaTeX behaves differently with \usepackage[style=apa,language=french]{biblatex} as it correctly typesets the in-word protected letter: “Sleeping Beauties in science”.

Please can you try biber 2.10 from the "development" folder on Sourceforge.

With biber 2.10: it works like a charm! The output appears as expected: “Sleeping Beauties in science.” Thank you for digging into this.
