Hello Alex,

you can configure it under Settings -> Preferences -> Editor -> Autocompletion -> QScintilla. Keep the first checkbox ("Show single") unchecked. If you stay a little while over the text, you'll see a tooltip with a good hint about the function of the specific setting.

You should also try out the eric plugins which support autocompletion. I prefer jedi, but you can also choose Eric assistant or rope (or even all of them together).

Is there a way to change the behavior of autocompletion so that eric never forces a match, but still displays the drop-down suggestion list?

 

For further clarification, my current experience with autocomplete turned on is that if there is only one match, the match will automatically fill, if there is more than one match, a drop-down of current matches will display. I like the drop down but do not like the automatic fill.

 

 

I am also wondering if it is possible, and if so how, to get autocomplete suggestions from imported modules outside of the python standard library.

 

Regards,

Alex.
