Setting Code Completion Shortcuts

As with all Source Editor keyboard shortcuts, you can modify the shortcut assignments for code completion. You can change the shortcut to display the code completion box, and you can create a shortcut to hide the code completion box.

To set or modify the code completion keyboard shortcuts:

  1. Choose Tools and choose Options and expand the Editing node.
  2. Select the Editor Settings node.
  3. Select the Global Key Bindings property and click the ellipsis (...) button. The Global Key Bindings dialog box is displayed.
  4. For easier searching, select Sort by Action. The actions are then listed alphabetically by the action name in the square brackets.
  5. Scroll to the completion shortcuts (action names completion-hide and completion-show) and select the one you want to set.
  6. Click the Add button. The Add Keybinding dialog box is displayed.
  7. Type the desired keyboard sequence and click OK.
