I don't understand what ctrl-space autocomplete is all about

#1

Hi

I have used autocomplete in notepad++ with C#

if I type
using System and do ctrl-space, I get options for completion (that’s in notepad++)

But in Sublime it says “no available completion”

and if I have some C# written e.g.
using sdfsdf;
class werwer {…}

then I do ctrl-space, it lists sdfsdf and werwer and using. It’s listing keywords and identifiers. Not really autocompleting.

I understand ctrl-space is autocomplete
sublimetext.com/docs/2/auto_complete.html

But what is it for in sublime and more significantly, where is the autocomplete that i’m looking for like I get in notepad++?

You’ll need a plugin to get the intellisense (autocomplete) that you’re looking for, I’m not a C# coder so I’m not sure if there is a plugin that will do this for C#. In ST autocomplete will only complete words that are within the current view.
