Feature: Setting to enable code completion without pressing ctrl + space

Open hwgn opened this issue 2 years ago • 0 comments

Description

Currently, the only way to enable completion without ctrl + space is through the preferences.txt file, however this is usually a sought-after feature within a few days of learning. I'm tutoring a programmers' beginner course where we make use of the Processing language and IDE, and usually we have to explain the process of enabling this setting several times before everyone figured it out - those who use it are usually very happy to have it.

Expected Behavior

It would be nice to have both the option to always show completions and to show completions only when pressing ctrl + space in the preferences window.

Current Behavior

Currently, only the option to show completions with ctrl + space exists in the preferences window.

Your Environment

  • Processing version: 4.0.1
  • Operating System and OS version: Kubuntu 22.04
