> tends to result in long lists The maximum size of the autocomplete menu is set (default 10) but the list can be longer than that, so you can't see the end items. That is the issue with long lists, because a wrap will be blind to items that are not visible yet. I am aware that VScode behaves

Other than scope based autocomplete, if you only have six items in the autocomplete list you are very lucky in my experience. Large amounts of "junk" options is very common making the list of options longer than the displayed menu. So if a user moves up they would wrap to an unknown item past

As I said, the behaviour of the autocomplete list movement is determined by the [Scintilla editing widget](https://www.scintilla.org/). This is a separate project and any change in the behaviour must be added there first and will be included in Geany when the appropriate version of Scintilla is

Every good editor has this behaviour, for instance Netbeans. Supose you have 5 itens in autocomplete. with one key press you can reach the last or 5 hits, what is more efficient? If we go to the LAST you can return to the first, only press DOWN as it will wraps again the boundary, to first. Are

Not sure its a good idea because when the list possible items is longer than the menu a wraparound is to the last of an unknown number of items. There is no way of knowing if its shorter or not. The cursor behaviour in the autocomplete menu is provided by the Scintilla editing widget, so it ha

When autocomplete list opens, sometimes is faster go to the last item moving UP instead of rolling all itens to down... It you are at the first and moves up, I think that it should go to the LAST item (as a cicle) -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/geany/ge
