Cleats: Cursor Case Sync

Preserve casing style while editing repeated identifiers with multiple selections in VS Code.

When you edit one selection in a compatible multi-selection set, this extension mirrors the text update across all tracked selections while keeping each target's original case style.

Why It Exists

Bulk identifier edits often break naming consistency. This extension keeps edits synchronized without flattening case styles, so mixed naming formats stay predictable.

Behavior

• Supports these case styles per tracked selection:
  • lowercase
  • UPPERCASE
  • Capitalized
  • leading-lower mixed case
  • mixed or unclassified
• Synchronization is active only when all selections are:
  • single-line
  • equal length
  • within configured min and max selection bounds
• Undo behavior stays clean by avoiding extra undo stops.
• Undo and redo document events are ignored for synchronization logic.

Quick Example

Source selections:

• helloword
• HELLOWORD
• HelloWord
• helloWord

Type HelloWorld once and results become:

• helloworld
• HELLOWORLD
• HelloWorld
• helloWorld

Settings

• cleatsCursorCaseSync.minSelections
  • Minimum selections required before sync is active.
  • Default: 2
• cleatsCursorCaseSync.maxSelections
  • Maximum selections allowed before sync is suspended.
  • Default: 200
