Description emi 2011-11-24 10:48:15 UTC

Pressing Ctrl+Enter will still insert the currently selection completion item and mask any possible external action.

The completion item should only respond to the Enter key without any modifiers.

Comment 2 Dusan Balek 2012-04-27 07:49:13 UTC

As designed behavior:
Enter -> completed text is inserted at caret position
Ctrl+Enter -> completed text overwrites identifier at caret position
Alt+Enter -> if completed text creates an expression, the expression is assigned to a new variable

Closing as WONTFIX.
