question - How to invoke the completion of text?
Opened this issue · 7 comments
Sorry this might be a dumb question but how do you actually complete the sentence when the suggestion comes up? I tried tab (like in vscode) but it does not seem to work?
I see in your gif example on the readme that you are able to complete one word at a time?
It should work with the tab key; that's what saminzadeh defined in codemirror-extension-inline-suggestion; I should have specified it in the documentation, sorry. The only reason I can think of for why it wouldn't work is that you have tab already configured to do something? I don't know; for me tab works fine, even after a space. Maybe this is an issue of us using different platforms, as I have only tested this on linux? I'm not at all sure. Can you confirm whether the issue is still there in a new vault?
So I just tested on a brand new vault, with nothing in it. And it worked as expected. So there must be something in my vault that is changing the behavior of using the indent/tab key. Will look for what that might be.
Ah I think found the culprit after disabling all plugins and testing the completion functionality with one plugin on at a time. This seems to be the plugin that is conflicting.

It was not immediately intuitive to me that this would have been what broke it? Is there anything about this plugin that stands out to you?
They are also implementing their functionality via a codemirror extension, so it is possible that there is a conflict in there somewhere, I'll look into it, thank you
Finally, looked a bit into it. Seems like the typewriter scroll plugin is triggering an extra view update every time you type anything, which, similar to moving your cursor, clears the suggestion state. I'll see whether I can find any good solution, because I really don't like the idea of just waiting a bit before showing the suggestion, and that's the only fix that seems to make sense right now.
I found that the plugin Latex Suite is also causing the same problem. Is there a fix for this yet?
I use latex suite too and its breaking. Latex suite is an essential plugin for me I'm afraid
