Re: Autocomplete Problem
That is bracket completion and can be turned off separately to autocomplete.

Re: Autocomplete Problem
Monte: What is annoying to me is when I use brackets and quotes. Maybe it’s just the way I have gotten habituated, but it is always trying to put double quotes when I add a quote (or bracket at the end of a bracketed expression) at the end of a string.

Can you provide an example. It shouldn’t do so unless you tab to complete. It could be that as we have had the tab to auto-format feature for such a long time that many people have become used to hitting tab a lot. FWIW I get really annoyed with some editors that do autocomplete on return so you type what you want and hit return and all of a sudden you get stuff you don’t want so I completely understand the annoyance factor.

Re: Autocomplete Problem
Hi Rick, With the script editor live, go to the menu for it and to Edit>Options> and turn off Autocomplete. There was an option to use F1 to disable but I don't seem to be able to get this to work on my Mac Sean On Tue, 23 Oct 2018 at 15:23, Rick Harrison via use-livecode < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > Greetings LiveCoders, > > I am having a problem with Autocomplete. > It keeps interfering with what I’m trying to type, > and I find it to be very annoying. > > I’m trying to turn the feature off in the Preferences > under Script Editor and have unchecked the > Auto Format box and that seems to have no > effect at all.
