The new Dreamweaver 5.5 closes the apostrophe as soon as you open it. Is there anyway to turn this feature off? I thought it would be with the auto html closing tags, but its not.
Thanks in advance
In Dreamweaver 5.5:
Open the Preferences panel.
From the left Category column, select Code Hints
Either uncheck Enable code hints or set the delay to a longer period of time.
This will either completely stop the autocomplete (and code hints) or cause it to wait for a period of time before attempting to autocomplete them.

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.
I use VSCode and I think its a great editor, but when I write a comment in html it drops to a new line under what I'm commenting which is really irritating.
If I comment a closing div I want it next to the closing div not under it.
I have uninstalled prettier but that made no difference.
Is what I want even possible in VSCode?
Any advise would be appreciated because I am so irritated that I am considering using a different editor (I'm on a Mac just in case it matters).
Thanks in advance.
This was a problem for me too, as were other new line / white space related HTML issues.
Assuming you are not using any formatters besides the native VSCode HTML language features (you said you uninstalled prettier, but you didn't mention whether you were using something else),
there is a setting HTML white space which you can set to preserve to leave your comments untouched.
Note that you may need to go into settings and check what is being used as the HTML default formatter
Anyone knows how to disable automatic removing tabs on new line after delay? Like you can see on picture below, VS Code deletes tabs on new line everytime when I don't start typing very fast.
Something similar is situation when I'm writing comment, create space and wait for a while. VS Code will delete my last space.
I fixed this by turning off the setting "files.autoSave", (I didn't want that in any case.) or disable your formatting tool. (most likely cause)
My problem was that I had a formatting tool run on save, which was removing excess white space and therefore squashing my tabs during editing. Looks like you have the same problem to me.
You can affect a delay if you want to use the auto-save feature by setting auto save to afterDelay and setting the delay to your liking
Is there any way to completely remove this message popup or move it to somewhere?
I already know why this message comes, but I do not want to disturb my activity with annoying info popup.
When it pops up it hides the document tab, so I have to close it every single time. (I do not want to know how to fix this particular error message, this screenshot is just an example.)
It's very annoying and I've searched around for a way to remove it, but the answers keep saying how to fix that particular error and not how to hide the popup itself.
Press ESC.
I agree that this is really annoying. VS Code is all about high-speed workflow and not having to interact with anything except your code via keyboard. Everything has key chords, e.g. CTRL-P and CTRL-SHIFT-P. So having to stop what I'm doing, go to the mouse, and dismiss this popup, whenever a background task feels like completing (and not even really then, because the popup actually appears some short time later) just so I can get visual confirmation of which file I'm currently coding in, to refocus my work after being distracted by the same popup, is really awkward. They are in a stupid location and don't even fade away after time like well-behaved toasts.
That said, I think that's really two parts; the distraction, and relatively high workflow cost to dismiss.
It helped me a lot to learn that it can be dismissed quickly and easily with the ESC key. The other half the problem I still haven't solved, but hope that helps you.
In the screenshot it shows trying to validate PHP.
In a VS Code window select File > Preferences > User Settings
An editor will open on the left called Default Settings and on the right with a file called settings.json
In the right side editor you can add settings that will override those found in the left-hand-side one.
Between the braces type:
// Whether php validation is enabled or not.
"php.validate.enable": false,
Then save the document.
VS Code will no longer attempt to validate PHP files.
You can override any of the defaults using this method.
You can use the same technique for each Workspace (or project folder) using File > Preferences > Workspace Settings
You can't disable the alert bar in general as VS Code needs to tell you things and doesn't (thankfully) use modal dialogs to communicate.
Go to File > preferences > settings
Then add this to your user settings
"editor.parameterHints": false
You may want to try adding the line
"extensions.ignoreRecommendations": true
to your VS Code settings file (which you can easily reach with the keystroke (CMD + ,) on a Mac OS X or macOS system.)
Solution: User Preferences > change "editor.parameterHints": true to "editor.parameterHints": false
This will at least remove the obstructive boxes that appear above the cursor.
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.
