Hi!
In fact there is some logic in the autocompletion to remember the last
choice. I fear it is not working correctly and should be fixed (and
extended).
It is not that obvious what exactly should be remembered. Probably it
would be enough to remember just a fixed number of completions and put
those in front to be selected first on tab. Everytime a selection is
chosen, the item it put in front again. So next time you want press
tab on the same prefix, you get the same completion again.
Regards,
Stefan

Oh PLEASE tell me there's a way to turn off autocompletion.
Yes, as others have said. But I leave it on for math, where it is
more useful.

Right, I like it for the math, precisely. What about my original
question, anyone?:
I love having an autocomplete in LyX 1.6. However, it doesn't seem
to remember at all what the completions I want are. It seems to
change what the first suggestion is too in ways that I cannot
understand. Both things makes it hard to use. (your mind expects it
to autocomplete to the previous one and you hit tab quickly and get
the wrong completion etc...)
Is this a fair description of the current implementation? Is there
any way to get it to know what the completions that you typically
want are or to learn them? Or at least have a consistent ordering of
completions?
