Description _ gsporar 2007-02-05 22:06:39 UTC
The new code completion features in 6.0 are very nice.  The three types of code
completion (as described here:
http://wiki.netbeans.org/wiki/view/Java_EditorUsersGuide) are great, but I need
to be able to reassign the default keystroke accelerators.  In other words, if I
want Ctrl-Space to do smart completion and Ctrl-Shift-Space to do standard code
completion, then I should be able to swap the default assignments in the Options
dialog section for keystrokes in order to accomplish the switch.

Once the swap is made, the editor should display the appropriate values in the
code completion dialog box.

Other files have code completion in them as well, and I'm not sure if all files
have different forms of code completion or not, but if they do then these
actions need to be reassignable by MIME type, thus if I setup TAB to be the code
completion key for Java I would not want it for XML.  Of course, if the actions
are context aware (i.e. in an XML file completion would not occur inline where a
< or a : had not been typed) then I suppose it really would not matter.  I
realize this is a bit off topic for the Java editor, but just saying this in
case the changes would affect other editors.
