CB's listing
« on: January 20, 2013, 10:37:16 pm »
I just upgraded to 12_11 and found some "missing" feature.
On 10_05 when I typed
Code
#include "
CB used to show me a complete list of all header files in the project.

Thats what I see is missing within the settings from the installation of CB 12_11.
I cannot change that, as I don't find any clue where I could find that option.(nor FAQ, wiki)
In Code-completion I only found an Option, where CB can list you some preprocessor, when you start writing "#"

There's also another thing.
In the beginning, there was this feature, when you opened more tabs than CB can show you, there appeared a little button after the last tab.
It displayed one arrow pointing down (not the current one, where it shows one arrow pointing right, pushing the next tab into the display)
This little button used to show the complete list of open tabs. I was glad that there was such a feature, but I accidentally changed the settings and the button disappeared and I never saw it from that point.
Even the re-installation didn't work, I must have changed some settings
Now to find the file I'm looking for, I open the header listing in the project window on the left and search through the project-tree (pushing F11, when I need the cpp)

Without both I kinda feel really uncomfortable using CB.

Thanks in advance.

Codecompletion for headers works for me, try to press "Ctrl+Space" after the double-quote.

For the other problem:
"Settings -> Notebooks appearance -> Use dropdown tablist" .
Additional you can use the openfiles list: "View -> Open files list".
To find a file in  the projects-tree, you can press "Alt+G" and start typing a part of the name in the textfield of the dialog.

Still is there any way to make it automatically appear ?
Showing the complete list makes sense when using openfiles list.
But when I want to Include a header, I want the list to shrink everytime I type a new character (like 10_05 did).

"Settings -> Editor -> Code completion -> Automatically launch ..." controls when cc kicks in.
To reduce the list, you can press "Ctrl+space" again, after typing some letters.

Ok 10_05 did not shrink the list, but the selector changed while typing, so that after some keys, you could push tab and CB would paste the selected header into the code

Ok did you know what did the job ?
I just re-changed the include path of the project in the build options and now it works.

Before that the list wasn't launching automatically
It only appeared when I typed ".." + CTRL+SPACE (the listing was kinda like "../Engine/folder/file.h"

So thanks for the help !!!

Can you provide a simple project which can be used to reproduce the problem?

btw: what os are you using?

Header completion is more reliable in the trunk than in 12.11 due to rev. 8651 and 8685...
