Anyone know how to use the autocompletion in NetLogo with a windows system. I saw something like this in a video, he was using mac. The document said version after 6.0 support autocompletion
to setup
clear-all
It supposes to be autocomplete suggestion after I type clear
Autocompletion is not triggered automatically: type the first letters of the command, than press CTRL + SPACE, and a dropdown menu will appear with command suggestions. Please check the screenshot below.

I just installed the latest Eclipse on my Mac and one problem is that it doesn't do auto-complete.
For example, I want to create "new ArrayList<>()", when I type "Arr", it doesn't automatically trigger the whole word. This is very inconvenient. The setting looks right. Please see the attached.
It triggers auto-complete when I press ctrl+space. But I want to always auto-complete without pressing the compound keys.
Just change in the Auto Activation triggers for Java the . for this:
._abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
Hope it helps.
people from StackOverflow. I have a very frustrating experience with VS Code. At the moment of starting a new file, a mode starts on the editor that makes me being unable to type anything. Here is a youtube link from me, trying to type something.
Unable to type characters in VScode
Please, tell me, what should I do?
press control+C, then press "i" to get in the "insert" status, you could edit your file now.
It looks like you have the Vim extension, or another extension, installed which is causing this. I see SURROUND INPUT MODE in the status bar which is probably the cause. Look at your extensions and see whether you need to disable or uninstall one, or start Code with --disable-extensions flag to disable them all.
I have been having the same problem caused by a plugin called vim (vim emulation for Visual studio code)...If it can help..
I had the same issue so I look up to Visual Studio Extensions and Disabled Vim extension then I can now edit my code anytime.
I had the same issue which was caused by the vim extension. Just go to extensions and type in vim, if it's installed clicked uninstall then reload/refresh vscode. This worked wonders for me.
Just press "i" on your keyboard, it should work!
You can disable this by starting with the letter i while your file is opened and with the cursor at any point on your file. Tapping i on your keyboard should immediately take you back to insert mode.
Challenge with this: You have to do it for every file before you start typing.
This is probably the VIM extension. You can keep the extension, all you need to do is command + C then i. the i is to get into insert mode.
To completely solve this problem, you may have to uninstall or disable VIM as an extension
Had the same problem. all I had to do was disable the vim extension install in my vscode
Disabling vim plugin in VS code helps.
I've recently started using the Visual Studio Code editor. I'm really loving it, but there's one critical feature (for me) that I haven't been able to find. Is there a method list, similar to the Navigator in NetBeans or Member dropdown in Visual Studio?
Yes, there is the workbench.action.gotoSymbol command. On Windows and Linux it's set to CTRL+Shift+O by default, on Mac it's Cmd+Shift+O.
If this command isn't available for the file types you are working with then you should take a look at the VSCode extensions. Not all languages support this feature.
Update: As stated in the comments by #jeff-xiao this extension is Deprecated and it's now a built in feature of Visual Studio code. It should be available at the bottom of file explorer as "Outline" view.
Previous text:
There is now an Extension that supports this. Code Outline creates a panel in the "Explorer" section and for JavaScript, will list variables and functions in a file. I've been using this for a while now and it scratches the itch I had. Other commenters have mentioned it supports Python and PHP well.
It still seems to be in development but I haven't had any issues. Development version available on GitHub. If you're the author reading this - thanks!
This is how it looks:
If Code Outline is not visible, you can show it by:
Invoke Code's Go to symbol command:
macOS: cmd+shift+o (the letter o, not zero)
Windows/Linux: ctrl+shift+o
Typing a colon (:) after invoking Go to symbol will group symbols by type (classes, interfaces, methods, properties, variables). Then just scroll to the methods section.
In 2020 version of VSCode
Cmd+P
# - Find symbol across files
# - Find symbol within file
#: - Group symbols within a file
In VSCode 1.24 you can do that.
Right click on EXPLORER on the side bar and checked Outline.
There is a new release that can do that!
Check here the latest release notes regarding code outline
UPDATE: The extension features are now built-in and the extension itself is now deprecated
I have found this extention: Code Outline.
This is how it looks like:
I believe that is what you have been looking for.
There's no such feature today,
the CTRL+SHIFT+O == CTRL+P # doesn't work for all languages.
As a last resort you can use the search panel - although it is not so fast an easy to use as you'd like - you can enter this regex in the search panel to find all functions:
function\s([_A-Za-z0-9]+)\s*\(
For PHP users :)
Make sure you have 'PHP Symbol' plugin then you can get all methods and class in 'OUTLINE' Sidebar's Bottom.
Press ⌘ command + ⇧ shift + O in "macOS" or Ctrl + Shift + O while using "Windows"
OUTLINE:
#Symbol:
For python in Explorer View, click on OUTLINE as below:
Visual Studio Code market place has a very nice extension named Go To Method for navigating only methods in a code file.
Hit Ctrl+Shift+P and type the install extensions and press enter
Now type Add to method in search box of extensions market place and press enter.
Click install to install the extension.
Last step is to bind a keyboard shortcut to the command workbench.action.gotoMethod to make it a real productivity thing for a developer.
Watch this link: https://code.visualstudio.com/updates/v1_40#_type-filters-for-outline-and-breadcrumbs
Explorer -> OUTLINE, you can choose what you want to show (only methods and functions in your case) and the result is similar to Netbeans:
Open symbol by name :
CTRL+T
might be what you are looking for. Works perfectly with my TypeScript project.
It is an extra part to the answer to this question here but I thought it might be useful. As many people mentioned, Visual Studio Code has the OUTLINE part which provides the ability to browse to different function and show them on the side.
I also wanted to add that if you check the follow cursor mark, it highlights that function name in the OUTLINE view, which is very helpful in browsing and seeing which function you are in.
ctrl+shift+o // This should work for javascript files by default
For PHP install the extension PHP SYMBOLS
FOR PYTHON install the extension PYTHON
On Reload, this will work fine
in-built code OUTLINE available now with VS code
There is a plugin called show functions which lists all the function definitions in a file. It also allows you to sort the function so can search them easily.
CTRL+F12 (CMD+F12 for Mac) - opens for me all methods and members in PHP class.
For find method in all files you can press CTRL + P and then start search with #
example : #signin
Take a look at Show Functions plugin.
It can list functions, symbols, bookmarks by configurable regular expressions. Regular expressions are a real saver, expecially when you're not using a mainstream language and when CodeOutline doesn't do the job.
It's ugly to see a split window with these functions (CodeOutline seems to be better integrated) but at least there's something to use
If you are using typescript you can use this extension "Code navigator for typescript".
I have been trying it and found it useful to list my typescript class methods.
In IPython's QT console (on Windows 7), if I type:
import scipy
scipy.zeros(
followed by Tab, it displays basic documentation for the method, like its signature, parameters, description, etc. In PyCharm CE 3.4.1, I have IPython enabled as my console, but this doesn't happen. The same is true in the actual editor; if I type this code in the editor, nothing shows up. I don't think this is related to the issue in this question (where PyCharm can't tell the type of something because it's not actually running it) but maybe it is.
In pycharm you have ctrl-q (or ctrl-j on a mac) for a quick-doc of the function under the cursor.
Ctrl + P to show method signature (parameters) as a pop-up.
other shortcut keys for pycharm are all available here.
If you are looking for Mac shortcut it's Command + P (⌘+P), accepted answer's solution didn't work.
Very old post but it's still a problem.
To see the function docstring, like what TAB in IPython shows, you should press Ctrl+Shift+I or go to View > Quick Definition while the cursor is within the function name (not between the parenthesis). A pop-up window shows the function docstring including few lines of the function code. However, it's not perfect and may not work in some cases, like pandas.read_csv().
Coming from Visual Studio and starting a project in Java, I realized I couldn't cope with having to press ctrl+space to have the autocomplete panel show up. An easy workaround was to set all keyboard characters to be trigger characters for autocompletion.
My only problem is that, when presented with autocomplete suggestions, a single press on the space bar will write the first proposition. In situations where I'm happy with the suggestions, that's just fine. In situations where I actually want to use what I wrote down initially, I have to press 'escape' first to remove the autocomplete panel before I can press 'space' safely.
Netbeans doesn't use the space bar as a validating key for autocompletion (only 'enter' does that) and I like that behavior. Any way to replicate it in Eclipse?
Thanks in advance for your answers!
EDIT: I should have mentioned I'm using Eclipse on the Mac.

I have the same problem with Eclipse Indigo on Windows XP actually. Coming from intellij idea, I also felt the need to set the whole keyboard to trigger auto-complete.
A quick proof that SPACE key does accept suggestions : type inte on a new line. If the auto-complete menu shows, press SPACE. It goes for Integer.
If anyone knows how to set the SPACE key to "ignore suggestions", it would be great, because the escape key on my keyboard is also too far away :)
Thanks
Edit : actually the best would be to have only the ENTER key validating, because ';' and '(' also seem to validate
I just tried to reproduce your behavior, but couldn't. Here is the configuration I have (and the steps I have done to reproduce):
I have installed Indigo (current version of Eclipse, version number 3.7).
I did not change any configuration there, this is what is the default:
Under Window > Preferences > Java > Editor > Content Assist, I have the following settings:
Completion inserts (instead of overwrite)
Insert single proposal automatically (which is ok most of the time)
not insert common prefix automatically
I have a simple class, go down to a method, and do the following steps:
Enter this.no and wait some time. Sometimes I have to press CTRL + SPACE, sometimes not.
Proposal pops up which includes notify and notifyAll.
I press SPACE and a space is inserted in the text, the autocomplete suggestions are closed without inserting anything.
I do not know if older versions of eclipse have the same behavior.
