Auto-Complete function

Status: New


Hello,

The idea is to automatically add the Auto-Complete function. that is, when you type the beginning of a function, the development interface  provides a set of functions. This option is present in most development software and facilitates the development too.

Thanks

While CVI does not offer suggestions at you type, you can press <Ctrl+Space> after beginning to type.  This will bring up a list of symbols that match what you've been typing. 

 

Also, <Ctrl+Shift+Space> will display a function prototype when your cursor is in a function.  Pressing 'F1' while this prototype is displaying will display the help for the function or parameter inline in the source editor.
