## Summary
The caps word behavior behaves similar to a caps lock, but will automatically deactivate when one of the configured "break keycodes" is pressed, or if the caps word key is pressed again. For smaller keyboards, using [mod-taps](/docs/behaviors/mod-tap), this can help avoid repeated alternating holds when typing words in all caps.
The caps word behavior behaves similar to a caps lock, but will automatically deactivate when any key not in a continue list is pressed, or if the caps word key is pressed again. For smaller keyboards using [mod-taps](/docs/behaviors/mod-tap), this can help avoid repeated alternating holds when typing words in all caps.
The modifiers are applied only to to the alphabetic (`A` to `Z`) keycodes, to avoid automatically appliying them to numeric values, etc.

## Caps Word
Creates a custom behavior that behaves similar to a caps lock but deactivates when any key not in a continue list is pressed.
See the [caps word behavior](/docs/behaviors/caps-word) documentation for more details and examples.

The `flavor` property may be one of:
- `"hold-preferred"`
- `"balanced"`
- `"tap-preferred"`
- `"tap-unless-interrupted"`
See the [hold-tap behavior documentation](/docs/behaviors/hold-tap) for an explanation of each flavor.
`hold-trigger-key-positions` is an array of zero-based key position indices.
You can use the following nodes to tweak the default behaviors:

| `&macro_tap` | Switches to tap mode |
| `&macro_press` | Switches to press mode |

Creates a custom behavior that triggers one of two behaviors depending on whether certain modifiers are held.
