Changing shortcuts dosnt work

i am trying to change the cursor tab autocomplete/prediction to a different keybind and i changed everything which uses tab to something else but it changed nothing as when i still press tab the text prediction gets filled in.

Same issue here.

You can workaround by changing the keybindings.json directly ( press Ctrl + Shift + P and select Preferences: Open Keyboard Shortcuts (JSON)).

I’ve tried changing the shortcuts in both the UI and JSON and it still doesn’t apply the changes. I changed every shortcut listed that uses the ā€˜tab’ key.

I’ve also found that it isn’t only the tab key that commits suggestions. If I try to arrow around things are committed as well.

After editing the JSON file (and restarting Cursor) I still see ā€œtabā€ in the UI settings. They seem to have reset themselves even though the JSON file still shows my new bindings.

I’m running through it all again and we’ll see. I haven’t modified the global key bindings. I’ll try that next.
