Details

In Visual Studio's implementation of Intellisense I can see all of an objects accessible members simply by typing a period after the name of the object.

In OmniSharp Sublime I can only get Intellisense code completions if I begin typing the first letter of a property, method, etc. on an object. I cannot see all of the available members.

We should be able to see all of an object's accessible members simply by typing a trigger character.

How-To

  1. Load a C# file
  2. Instantiate an object myObject
  3. Type myObject. (note the period)
  4. Observe that no completions are shown
  5. Type myObject.T
  6. Observe that, now that you've typed a "T", myObject.ToString() is shown as an available member.

Fixed by adding the following to my application-level user settings:

    "auto_complete_triggers":
    [
        {
            "characters": ".<",
            "selector": "source.cs"
        }
    ]
