Cannot find 'decimal.Context' when typing 'decimal.ctxt'

[linette-zyy]

Environment

Steps to Reproduce 1.Create a Python Application project 2.Type Sample Code

import decimal
decimal.ctxt

Expected behavior decimal.ctxt will bring decimal.Context up.

Actual behavior Cannot find 'Context' when typing 'ctxt'. NOTE: Can find 'Context' when typing 'c'

This repros in VS, but not in VS Code. It seems like the fuzzy matching is different in VS?

I do see Context if I type decimal.cotxt instead.

I also see it if I type decimal.co then delete the o and then type txt. So I still end up with decimal.ctxt but temporarily had an o in the string during filtering.

If this issue sounds familiar, see https://github.com/microsoft/pylance-release/issues/3037. :)

@debonte do you think this item could be closed? It sounds like a VS specific behavior in their filtering of the completion list (and not something pylance is doing).

[debonte]

Probably best to ask @heejaechang since he knows more about how IntelliSense works.

Moving to triage for visibility.

[heejaechang]

so, our response is correct. should we give it to VS LSP client team? since it looks like it is VS LSP client that filter Context out.

[bschnurr]

Yes.

Note: I think is only reproducible based on timing. if I type really fast then it works. if I take my time it does not.
