I don't understand why this is obvious. This behavior happens on all items in the picklist -- even the ones that do not have whitespace in them. -----Original Message----- From: Hussein Shafie [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, January 15, 2007 3:56 AM To: Mark Fletcher Cc: xmleditor-support at xmlmind.com Subject: Re: [XXE] problem with using spacebar to autocomplete pick list selection?

When an item contains whitespace, pressing the space bar obviously cannot be used to manually perform the autocompletion. In such case: * Turn on Append mode = Automatic (Options|Options, Edit section -- see http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/help/com.xmlmind.xmleditap p.dialog.PreferencesEditorDialog.html#editOptions) * OR type "Q" and then press DOWN_ARROW, * OR type "Q" and then press Ctrl-SPACE.
