Summary: Code prediction after entering part of a word

Description wachler 2012-10-29 11:10:30 UTC 
Example: I want to write CSS property "padding-top".

1) I write "pad" 
2) first push Ctrl + Space shows the prediction code (http://www.imghosting.cz/images/43pad1.png) 
3) I repeatedly push the Ctrl + Space to complete word "padding", but still nothing

The word "padding" is the only way to continue or not ? So why do I have to use the down arrow to mark the word "padding-top" and then
"Enter" (complicated) ? When a write "bor"(for "border") - word list is more longer...

My idea:

1) I write "pad"
2) first Ctrl + Space - shows the prediction code
3) second Ctrl + Space => "padding" (because the word "padding" is the only way to continue)
4) I write "-t"
5) shows the prediction code with the only option "padding-top"

It is much easier and especially faster.

<tab> key is what you need to press to complete the common prefix.
