proposals for partially entered text. This helps you write accurate code fast. It works for all language constructs.

Details
Manually Triggering Autocomplete
Type a few letters and press Ctrl + Space. A list of proposals pops up. The list shrinks as you type. Use the up and down arrows, then press Enter to insert a proposal.
Automatic Autocomplete Trigger
Autocomplete also triggers automatically, for example when you type a dot after an interface. Only variables defined inside the interface are proposed.
Context-Sensitive Autocomplete
Autocomplete is context-sensitive. Only valid proposals in the current scope are suggested.
Autocomplete for All Constructs
Autocomplete works for all constructs. For example, type a backtick and select a macro.
Using CamelCase Autocomplete
Typing long descriptive names is cumbersome. Use CamelCase Autocomplete to speed up typing.
