call tip / code completion popup: only on request, disable autolaunch

<< < (2/2)

BlueHazzard:
There is a short cut for show the popup:

--- Code: ---ctrl+space
--- End code ---
found in Edit->Complete code

but there is no option to turn off automatic popup... I could try to make a patch...

The best thing you could do is to inspect the code and try to find all places which trigger this unwanted behaviour. Then make a patch. For us it will be a lot harder, because we're not sensitive to this.

Wow, I'm surprised this hasn't been discussed.

Anyway, for what it's worth I would definitely appreciate this feature.  SmartSense is nice, throwing it in my face when I'm trying to think about something else is not.   Right now my only option is to disable smartsense all together, which makes code::blocks not that much better than just using a syntax highlighting text editor.

Netbeans allows for manual completion triggering, so I might stay with it a little longer, though it's C/C++ development plugin seems to get buggier with each release and I'd like to move to something else.
