Why does vscode remove the prefix from intellisense suggestions? - visual-studio-code

I'm trying to figure out why this is happening and how to stop it.
I'm typing edi in the screenshot and the autocomplete options are only the letters that come after edi. I'd like it to show the full name of the suggestions.
How can this be changed?

How to auto hide word from IntelliSense when it is already typed

VSCode IntelliSense should get out of the way when not needed.
as shown below, when I start typing reg Intellisense pops up which is cool but when I fully typed regex it's still there, and that with the only suggestion. I find this annoying. Ideally, it should get hidden as there are no available suggestions.
is there a way this little annoyance can be fixed?

how to keep shown the suggestions popup in vscode while moving the caret one character?

how to keep shown the suggestions popup in visual-studio-code while moving the caret one character in the same word, so I don't have to hit ctrl-space shortcut again?
This should now be possible with VSCode 1.51 (Oct. 2020):
Move cursor to select suggestions
You can now move the cursor while suggestions are showing.
For instance, you can trigger suggestions at the end of a word, move left to see more suggestions, and then use replace to overwrite the word.
Theme: GitHub Light
Unfortunately, this is not possible at this time. If you would to like to report a feature request, it's recommended to do it on their GitHub I couldn't find any duplicates at this time; though it's hard to search for something like this because there are so many verbiage variants. They can better help you in that regard.
Alternatively, you can provide feedback inside the application itself using the 'Tweet Feedback' functionality.

Is there any way to remove auto-select after autocomplete on VS-code?

as the title says I'm looking for a way to remove the autoselect code after autocomplete. Currently, the only way to remove the autoselected line is either pressing ESC key or clicking anywhere else. And it's currently giving me issues because it's quite annoying.
I've been searching for a solution for about 3 days and it's either I'm doing it wrong or I don't really know what the issue exactly is... Here's a picture of my issue
As you see in the picture, the code is autoselected/highlighted right after autocomplete and as said I really need help because it's turning annoying.
Thanks in advance.

Python autocompletion in neovim using deoplete

I am trying to set up deoplete in neovim for autocompletion in python. In the screen shot below, you can see that it recognizes numpy module, but when I add "." following "np", I get no autocomplete suggestions at all. How do I debug it?
You need to wait a second for autosuggestion to pop up.
Also you can try typing some letters to narrow it down.

How to stop FlashDevelop suggestions in text files

I'm using FlashDevelop 4.6.1.30 in Windows, using it with HaxeFlixel.
The autocomplete suggestions appear when editing code - this is wanted, it is good.
They also appear when editing text files though - this is not wanted, it is not good.
Specifically, if I create a new text file in flash develop (so the file is called "readme.txt" or something), after typing a few words, FD tries to "guess" what I'm typing and pops up the suggestions list. This, of course, makes no sense when trying to type out things that aren't code.
Yes, I've seen this Flashdevelop - Disable autocomplete for txt files and no, it doesn't work - even after a restart.
Here is a screenshot showing it not working...
Can confirm, setting that option doesn't prevent completion in .txt files. Consider opening an issue on the FlashDevelop repository.
Looks like a bug.
For now you can simply disable the BasicCompletion plugin (check Disable and restart FlashDevelop).
