Show a auto-complete/help dropdown on typing "/" for helping choosing the snippet

Feature Ideas
1

Hello,

I'd like when I'm typing "/abc" to have a dropdown showing up, just bellow my "/abc", my first 5 snippets containing "abc" to help me choose them (with tab & arrows for example).
Something like intellisense in Visual Studio.

Thanks and have a nice day,
Mihai

Hi @Mihai_Tanasoiu Welcome to the forum! :slight_smile:

Thanks for the suggestion, it's a nice idea! We do intend to have an autosuggest feature soon, but we don't have any ETA yet. I'll keep you posted on updates.

Best,

Hi @Gaurang_Tandon ,

I'd also be very interested in this. Is this feature still on your roadmap?

I understand it might be difficult or not desirable to systematically trigger auto-completion on "/abc". However I'd personally be fine with triggering on something more specific like "//" or "/?".

Cheers,
Gabrielle

Hi @Gabrielle Welcome to the forum! :slight_smile:

At the moment, this specific feature is not on our roadmap.

In the meanwhile, you can use the Text Blaze Assistant (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IIWQbcqH8mQ&t=0s) entirely via keyboard shortcuts: launch it via the keyboard shortcut, then use letter keys to search your snippet, then use arrow keys to navigate the list, and then press Enter key to insert the selected snippet.
You can also customize its keyboard shortcut. Would the assistant work for your use case?
