keyboard shortcut to turn autocomplete on and off

[Enzopin]

Is there a way to turn autocomplete on and off with a keyboard shortcut?

Since for those of us who are practicing python for example, many times we do not want it to show us how to do something, but rather do it ourselves. On the other hand, autocomplete is still very useful to create documentation, comments and things like lists quickly and be more productive when practicing, so I think a quick way to activate and deactivate autocomplete would be great

Hi @Enzopin ,

Does this assist?

Quick disable/enable

Further to my last post in this thread, this is is the behaviour I was referring to: Screenshot 01 - Cursor Tab link in bottom right of screen - ON [cursor_tab_link_before] Screenshot 02 - Option to turn off Cursor Tab from within Editor [turn_off_cursor_tab_from_within_editor] Screenshot 03 - Cursor Tab link in bottom right of screen - OFF [cursor_tab_link_after]

I’m doing this in keybindings.json:

  {
    "key": "ctrl+shift+x",
    "command": "editor.cpp.disableenabled"
  },
  {
    "key": "ctrl+shift+c",
    "command": "editor.action.enableCppGlobally"
  }

Seems to be working. I wish cmd shift x would toggle but I’m not sure the when statement value that would check the cpp enabled state

I would personally love it if I could disable autocomplete suggestions for editing regular text, but get suggestions for code. It’s hard to think while writing when the editor keeps suggesting text.
