Problem with Code Completion in Eclipse ATD

ekekakos — Tue, 05 Nov 2024 10:09:25 GMT

Hello all, the behavior of the eclipse when I am writing ABAP changed and I cannot find where.

Previously, when it suggest sth it was i a black box and if you wanted you press TAB or CTRL-SPACE to find sth else. Like the below picture.

From the weekend sth changed (most probably by me) and the behavior changed. The suggestion goes in line and the cursor at the end of the proposal, like the below picture.

t is the letter i type and ype is the code completion.

Keep in mind that I am in the latest update of the Eclipse and I am using the DARK theme of Eclipse.

Please for your help as this behavior is very annoying.

Thanks

Elias

Hi Elias,

I noticed this today as well and at a guess, it came in with the latest Eclipse updated applied. It is indeed a nuisances as it for example looks like this for me when I want to write a simple data-statement and start to type "da" when it correctly suggests "TA" as the continuation ...

But upon accepting that, it doesn't properly turn the "da" into upper case as it did before and not so helpfully suggests the addion of "BEGIN OF" with the cursor positioned at the end:

For me, this isn't an improvement to earlier behaviour.

Cheers
