Android Studio text all caps is not working

ScreenShot

As you can see my text all caps property is not ticked, my design tool window shows text in lower case but my emulator does not. The same thing is happening with my phone. Please help.

Here are my xml code: activity_main.xml:

Attributes like

android:inputType, android:SingleLine

nullifies effect of textAllCaps.

In my case, in theme, I have set

<style name="TextAppearance.WD.Headline6" parent="TextAppearance.MaterialComponents.Headline6">
    ...
    <item name="textAllCaps">true</item>
    ...
</style>

But in one widget, I need to get every other attributes of Headline6 except textAllCaps attr.

So I am using in that widget as,

<TextView
...
android:textAppearance="?attr/textAppearanceHeadline6"
android:textAllCaps="false"
.../>

But that won't work, the theme attribute overrides the layout attribute and the widget shows all the text in caps.

The solution is to apply the attribute through code as,

binding.textViewHeadline6.isAllCaps = false

This works!

tools:textAllCaps="false" change this in to android:textAllCaps="false"

For your another comment,please check with this,

    <style name="AppTheme" parent="AppBaseTheme">
    <item name="android:buttonStyle">@style/Button</item>
</style>

<style name="Button" parent="Widget.AppCompat.Button">
    <item name="android:textAllCaps">false</item>
</style>

The button text might be transformed to uppercase by your app's theme that applies to all buttons. Check your themes / styles files for setting the attribute android:textAllCaps.
