To avoid forcing people to have code completion pop up automatically, it could be made an option -people could check a checbox to indicate whether they want autocomplete to pop up automatically or only when they press ctrl+space. I believe (read: hope) this wouldn't be much of a trouble for the developers. I agree this should be an *option*, probably disabled by default I agree this should be an *option* There is already a checkbox under Tools -> Options -> Editor -> Code Completion -> All Languages called "Auto Popup Completion Window", turned on by default. So shouldn't PHP just respect this option? Options in "All Languages" can be used - the question is whether all the options there make sense for any arbitrary language? I would guess that no language supports cares about all of these options - which is actually bug if presented as "All Languages" BTW: I would rather have more options than one. Something like: - autocomplete class member (after -> or ::) - yes/no - autocomplete variables (after $) - yes/no - autocomplete namespace names (after \) - yes/no and so on for example after $ autocompletion works already now If I write "str" don't open automatically the popup with "str_replace, str_ireplace, str_pad.....". I do use "ctrl+space" ....you can do with the classes as it does for the variables? > no language supports cares about all of these options
I agree this is a bug, and probably some of these options should be moved to Java language.
Yes task for HIE? Moreover I would prefer to have our option disabled as default, which is impossible if it is generally shared Fixed Just installed the latest nightly build. NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 200911091156) Tested and it is working great. Tools -> Options -> Editor -> Code Completion -> Auto Popup Completion Window Option seems to be respected. Thanks alot rmatous for your hard work. Created attachment 92564 [details]

Hi, I'm a ZendStudio user for many years now. I've switched to netbeans 6.8 and immediately fell in love with this IDE. In Zend, i have grown accustomed to code completion facility, and i think it's very useful. I't displaying autocompletion dialog, immediately after first character is typed. I see that you've made this option so dialog shows after you stop typing, but this slows me down very much. I use code completion do speed up code typing, and this really annoys me. Is there a slightest possibility to have this instant code complete dialog integrated? So, immediately after first keystroke i would like to see dialog shown. Here's how ZendStudio made interface for this option (see attachment). So, there is one box that limits number of results that are shown in dialog (so you won't have rendering sluggishness) and time delay for dialog. Also, i've provided video to see how it behaves in zend studio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gglfH-aCO2U I realize that your goal is not to copy ZendStudio, but i really think that this option is for some developers essential. batch reassigning |
