Please add code completion while typing. #62

Closed Chris2011 closed 9 years ago

The Code completion only works, after typing a t and than hit Ctrl + Space. It would be better to have code completion on type. Maybe this could be handled via option.

Chris

Hi there,

this is integrated in a "standard" feature of NetBeans called CodeTemplates. There you can only configure how to expand the code template. Trying to override this behavior is beyond the scope of this plugin.

But if it is a standad feauter, and yeah I know it, the code completion doesn't appears after typing a character or a word. It only appears after typing the character and hit Ctrl + space.

It is not code completion! It is the code template feature.

That's how the feature works, isn't it? When I create a Javascript File and I want to use the code templates - it is the same behavior. Type a + CTR-SPACE you'll get alert() and so on.

Ahh ok I see, sry for that, didn't know it. For some code templates I know the shortcuts so if or ife or so, so for these I didn't need the hint. Thx
