------- Additional comments from borso...@openoffice.org Sat Feb 7 17:05:52 +0000 2009 ------- When word completion is enabled, and the initial few characters of a word (present in the word list) are entered, a completion is presented. When there is more than one completion, and the presented one is not the one wanted, the user can either reject completions at all, and complete himself the word, or enter ctrl-tab to cycle thru completions. In this case word completion is almost useless since the number of ctrl-tab's to be entered and the pain to hit two keys simultaneously is most of the times higher than completing the word. In my everyday experience at least half of the words have more than one completion. This means that a very useful feature fails to provide its benefits half of the times. This could be overcome by displaying the completions one each second, having the enter key (or the configured one) accept the dispayed one. Alternatively, a popup could be displayed showing all completions and letting the user click on the desired one, but this makes the user move a hand from the console to the mouse. -Angelo Borsotti --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
