Visual Studio Tip / Trick #065 English Transcription:

Today’s trick number 65 is a video repost of Sara Ford’s original blog post for her tip number 65 which is completing a word via inteliscence. So we all know the famous trick to bring up inteliscene is [CTRL]+[SPACE]. Now you have your arrow keys that you can move up or down and simply press enter but the tip actually is a word complete. So if you write L you can do [CTRL]+[SPACE] again to complete that line you can also do [ALT]+[RIGHT-ARROW] which would complete that selection when its the only selection. So if you write WRI and you do [ALT]+[RIGHT-ARROW] its just gonna say hey which one of these do you want? but if you have the L there with only one possible scenario left [CTRL]+[SPACE] or again [ALT]+[RIGHT-ARROW] will work for you as well. So there is another little tip of this through in here, once in a while am in middle of a word here that I want to see intellicence for with the list members and I try to do a [CTRL]+[SPACE] and I find myself saying but I really wanna actually see what my other options are remember [CTRL]+[J] is bound to list member so just another couple of tricks about and around keyboard shortcuts for intellisence....
