{{tip|The following tips can help you get the most out of feature call automatic completion: }}
|
||||
* If the selected feature is a query, you can call the auto-complete again right after the previous completion. There is no need to type a dot.
|
||||
* You can call the auto-complete without an identifier. The auto-complete window will then show the features of the current class.
|
||||
* The keyboard shortcut for automatic completion can be changed in the [[Keyboard shortcuts preferences|editor preferences]] .
|
||||
* Typing a non-alphanumeric character in the completion window automatically closes it. You can therefore type '.', ' ' or '(' to close the completion window and start typing the next token straight away.
|
||||
|
||||
{{note|s''': }}
|
||||
{{note|There are just a few more things you should know about feature call automatic completion: }}
|
||||
* Only identifiers that were already defined when the class was compiled for the last time can be completed, except for local entity names that can always be completed.
|
||||
* Only compiled features will appear in the auto-complete window.
|
||||
* By default, features from class ANY will be ignored by the auto-complete window. This can be changed in the [[General Editor Preferences|editor preferences]] .

EiffelStudio editor includes new features designed to help write Eiffel code. Automatic completion is one of those. This feature is available in three contexts:
|
||||
|
||||
* [[Syntax auto complete]]: when the user types some expression defined in the Eiffel language.
|
||||
* [[Feature call auto complete]]: when the user enters a feature call.
|
||||
* [[Class name auto complete]]: when the user enters a class name.
|

This feature is can be customized or disabled in the [[Editor Preferences]].
