Glossy Autocomplete #3

Open szymonmasternak opened 1 day ago

szymonmasternak commented 1 day ago

Is it possible to get autocomplete on glossy when typing a glossary term?

Right now when using glossarium package, I can see an autocomplete preview for all possible glossary terms. image

On glossy the only thing I see is this: image

I think it would be a nice feature to implement.

Thanks Szymon.

Interesting. I'll take a look and see if I can understand why this works in glossarium.

After thinking about it a bit I realized that it is working just the same as glossarium. However, the reason you're not seeing the same things on auto-complete is because glossy takes a different approach to labeling and referencing.

Each time you use a term, it gets a label like __gloss:css.0, __gloss:css.1, and so on. These labels are referenced later in the index, so the page numbers listed for a term can link back to the right usage.

I have an idea about something that might not really fix your autocomplete issue, but might improve the usability dramatically. I'll experiment with it in the coming days.

Although, thinking on it further, each time you use a term, like @css, that should also get added via your LSP, and since @ sorts before _ should get listed first in your autocompletion. So, I'm stumped. I'll keep thinking about it.
