Turn Off (Disable) Pop-Up Code Completion

Post by gregkedro »

Apologies for a question I'm sure has been asked a million times. I Googled it (a lot). And then I did not see a "search" function on this forum. So, here goes...

I'm learning CodeLite after having used vim/g++ for a good while. The automatic pop-up code completion is driving me nuts and I can't for the life of me figure out how to turn it off.

Would someone be able to direct me to where I can turn these pop-up "cheat sheets" off? I'll turn 'em on later (maybe). But for now, I'm really finding them a terrible distraction.

Thanks ahead of time.

GregK.

Did you try turning off Settings -> Code Completion -> Triggering -> Auto display?

I have no menu item "Code Completion" in my Settings pulldown. I have:
Global Editor Preferences...
Colours and Fonts...
Keyboard Shortcuts...
Environmental Variables...
Build Settings...
GDB Settings...
Tag Settings...

I'm using version 6.1.1.

Wow. I think maybe I just figured out what the problem might be. My Devuan (Debian sans systemd) installed version 6.1.1 and CodeLite is currently on 11.0.0. Now I feel like I'm riding a horse into town while everyone else is screaming past me in those fancy motorcars...

Hi,

Our own repo archive has the last version of CodeLite for debian jessie, 10.0. If you don't want to self-build, you'll probably find that will install and work correctly.

Regards,

David
