Comment #2 on issue 3 by [email protected]: Combining completeopt=menu,preview and cursorcolumn will make completion menu vanish
http://code.google.com/p/vim/issues/detail?id=3
You are absolutely right, I idiotically tested with my own .vimrc. Anyhow, using awesome debug magic I traced down :set ruler to be additional culprit here, no plugins.
Updated instructions: 1) Open a new python file with vim 1) a) vim -N -u NONE -U NONE -i NONE foo.py 2) Set completion 2) a) filetype plugin on 2) b) set omnifunc=pythoncomplete#Complete 2) c) set completeopt=menuone,menu,longest,preview 3) Set trouble makers 3) a) set cursorcolumn 3) b) set ruler 4) Import some stdlib that has docstrings import string foo = "" foo. 5) Press <C-X><C-O> 6) Choose from list 7) Menu will vanish -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
