Maybe I need more sleep... but how do I make sure that I use the default capitalization EXCEPT when I declare the type to be a NAME?

KeyboardOptions.Default.copy(
    capitalization = when (textFieldType) {
        MyCustomInputFieldType.EMAIL -> "How do I use the default here?"
        MyCustomInputFieldType.NAME -> KeyboardCapitalization.Sentences
        MyCustomInputFieldType.NUMBER -> "and here?"
    }

You should really invert the two constructs so as to only copy when needed, but you can use KeyboardOptions.Default.capitalization to get the default

If you look here, you can also see the default’s value, which is KeyboardCapitalization.None

@ jw I'm only showing a snippet here, but in general it looks like this. so inverting the two constructs woulnd't make sense (i think) in my actual case. just my snippet

KeyboardOptions.Default.copy(
    capitalization = when (textFieldType) {
        MyCustomInputFieldType.EMAIL -> "How do I use the default here?"
        MyCustomInputFieldType.NAME -> KeyboardCapitalization.Sentences
        MyCustomInputFieldType.NUMBER -> "and here?"
    }
    keyboardType =
        when (textFieldType) {
          MyInputFieldType.EMAIL -> KeyboardType.Email
          MyInputFieldType.PASSWORD -> KeyboardType.Password
          MyInputFieldType.NAME -> KeyboardType.Text
          MyInputFieldType.NUMBER -> KeyboardType.Number
        },
   ),

But cool. KeyboardOptions.Default.capitalization should work. thanks
