Tab key behavior is broken

Describe the bug

Partially typing the folder name and pressing tab key is supposed to open auto-complete dropdown. However, with the latest update (v0.2023.06.20.08.04.stable_03) tab key just inserts few spaces at the cursor point. For example if I have a folder engine-core and engine-hood, earlier I could just type eng and hit tab to open auto-complete. Now it just adds spaces e.g. cd eng <tab>.

To reproduce

1. Open warp terminal
2. type cd and then partially type any folder name. Hit tab key. Make sure that the file or folder name has more than one similar folders. For example, if you have two folders with name engine-core and engine-hood then type eng and hit tab key.
3. Spaces are inserted instead of opening auto-complete dropdown.

Does this block you from using Warp daily?

No

Is this a Warp specific issue? (i.e. does it happen in Terminal, iTerm, Kitty, etc.)

Yes, this I confirmed this only happens in Warp, not other terminals.

Hey Folks, Thanks for letting us know, just to confirm, if you go do Settings > Keyboard Shortcuts, what do you see by "Open Completions menu"? It should be set to TAB by default.

Also, if the TAB key is highlighted, that typically means there is another key bind using the same shortcut, so you can search for TAB in the keyboard shortcuts search to find the conflict. You can also reset the keyboard shortcuts to default to remove the conflict.

[yaneshtyagi]

It's tab.

[yaneshtyagi]

No other command is bind to tab. There is one ⇧ Tab. Would it cause the conflict?

But strangely enough, it began working now.

@CalebDu @thomasburguiere @JamieMcMillan Did it began working for you? I guess that opening the keyboard shortcuts screen and closing it resolved the issue.

It solves the issue temporarily... If you open a new tab or something, it's broken again.

[cristianblar]

Same issue, it's really annoying 😕 auto-completion is the most used feature (at least by me).

[JamieMcMillan]

My keyboard shortcuts are the same as @yaneshtyagi.

I am having the same issue. It's very intermittent

[dannyneira]

Anyone using bindkey in the rc files by any chance? I;ve noticed it effects TAB completion behaviour. https://docs.warp.dev/help/known-issues#list-of-incompatible-tools

Also, try enabling "Completions as you type" https://docs.warp.dev/features/completions#how-to-access-it to see if that helps.

For me tab seems to be broken when I ssh into a device but works fine locally.

[cristianblar]

The issue is solved now with the last update (v0.2023.06.27.19.34.stable_01).

[yaneshtyagi]

I confirm that the issue is resolved with the v0.2023.06.27.19.34.stable_01 update.

Shall I close the issue?

[dannyneira]

Thanks for confirming all! Closing as resolved, but please feel free to let us know if the issue persists.

[TheFern2]

@dannyneira Still a little flaky for me. I'm an embedded engineer and I ssh into devices quite often. Even after the update I noticed losing the ability to tab and then it would work later on. Maybe there's a timeout for ssh connections or something. I'll keep an eye when I come back from vacations.

Same issue!

KUbuntu 22.04 fish, version 3.7.0 warp, v0.2024.02.20.08.01.stable_02 Input method framework: fcitx5 Input method: rime

When I first changed the tab key behavior, it took effect, but after I closed warp and reopened it, I could only accept autocomplete suggestions with Enter again.
