If you’ve inadvertently left the Caps Lock button on you can highlight the text and the Shift+F3 shortcut will cycle through all lower case, all caps, capitalise the start of the sentence.

Sometimes if you’re copying/pasting from a web page, word doc etc the paste copies the formatting (bold, size, color etc) of the text as well, which you may not always want. ctrl_shift+v strips off all formatting and just pastes the text itself.
