Code assistant preference

[ccote]

HI, I really like the code assistant. But I would like to know if it is possible to change the key (currently ENTER) used to select an item form the list. I would prefer the TAB key instead. Is there a way to to it?

Thank you,
ccote

No kidding. I had to write something in VB last week and I kept hitting enter instead of tab. Once I got back into the tab habit (or tabbit, ), I kept hitting tab in pl/sql dev.

I have added this to the list of enhancement requests. Maybe we can add this in 6.0.4.

HI, I have PL/SQL dev version 7 and this feature seems still to be not in. Maybe I am missing something?

Thank you!

This turned out to be surprisingly difficult to implement. One would think that all you need to do is check for Tab and Enter, but unfortunately this is not the case. It's still on the to-do list though.

Hi guys, great product, but I would also like this feature.

Not being able to set a preference to use tab to do code completion is a little annoying when coming back to plsql developer after a couple of days of using visual studio.

A number of other IDE's also use tab for code completion, so I imagine a number of your users who don't solely do database development would prefer to use TAB.

I also use bash

Thanks.
