I recently switched my outlook to the new look, and I've noticed that the Shift + F3 shortcut that changes between different cases does not work in the email editor. Is there a way to re-enable this without switching back to the old outlook GUI?

Dear Aaron Thomas4,
Good day!
Thank you for posting to Microsoft Community. We are happy to assist you.
As per the description you cannot use the feature to switch the case of the first letter in a selected word or line using the command "Shift+F3" in new Outlook for Windows.
After thorough testing and consultation, it’s been concluded that the feature you're inquiring about, is not yet available in new Outlook for Windows. You can refer to the attached article Keyboard shortcuts for Outlook - Microsoft Support.
Please note new Outlook is still in active production/preview. However, thank you for bringing this to our attention, we will surely raise your concerns to our Product Development Team and hopefully this can be included in the future updates. In the meantime, we sincerely recommend you post your feedback to our Outlook in-app support team. Contact support and provide feedback within the new Outlook for Windows - Microsoft Support
Our Product Development Team are committed to enhancing the customer experience by continually examining suggestions to include in the design and development of future product upgrades based on your suggestions. Hopefully your suggestion will help many users in the future.
Thank you for your time and understanding. For other questions, feel free to add your post in the Microsoft Community team.
Stay safe and healthy. Have a good day!
Sincerely,
Simbarashe | Microsoft Community Moderator

Why would they disable this function and when will it be back? Isn't a new version of software supposed to have enhancements, not become less user-friendly? I took a look at the shortcuts list you provided and it is extremely elementary. I will not be having anyone at my company to switch to the new version--Microsoft should not have released a software update while still in active production/preview.

It still does not work! I cannot figure out why this feature was removed by the MS development team!!!
It seems like the team may have overlooked the importance of improving functionality in favour of making cosmetic changes.

Replying to myself!
Turned out it was an easy fix. Fn lock was activated on my keyboard (Logitech). Fix for that is pressing fn/esc simultaneously. Different brands have different fixes.

using new outlook v- 1.2024.605.100 and this is still not available.
I understand this outlook is web based and shift+F3 is an MS Office local app feature. But it was very handy.
Please bring it back.
