How to disable autocomplete in code editor???

Post by blackout123 » Wed Aug 28, 2019 11:36 pm

Hello,

Is there a way to turn OFF autocomplete code statements in code editor on MacOS?
At least with a console command? Autocomplete slown down code editing on my very old machine :(

I see the "auto format" option in the preferences but nothing about autocomplete.

Thank you.

Hi.

There must be a preference in the SE pane.

It's in the debugger menus. I'm not st the computer right now but there's an Options menu item in either the Edit or Debug menu that lets you toggle several options including autocomplete.

When you are editing a script then the go to the Edit Menu and look for Options.
The Options depend a bit on your edition of Livecode.

There you can turn off autocomplete
