Auto Complete braces options in too many locations confusing

Postby garethjmsaunders » Tue Dec 20, 2011 6:36 pm

I'm using WeBuilder 11.2.0127 and have been having an issue with the Auto Complete feature: I haven't been able to switch it off. And I've only just discovered why, but the WeBuilder options seem to me to very odd and counter-intuitive.

In Options > Preferences > Text Editor > Auto Complete I have EVERYTHING unticked. But in my CSS files it still auto completes the curly braces! I have had to go to Options > Preferences > Language Options > CSS to find an option for "Auto complete CSS rule braces".

Surely, it would be much more sensible to group ALL the Auto Complete rules under the Text Editor > Auto Complete options, including CSS and HTML.

If I have options for Text Editor > Auto Complete I expect it to overrule everything else. If I switch it off here that means I want it switched off across the whole of the application. I appreciate the language options, but group it with the override so that I can see what is still going on. It's taken me months to discover this setting in Language Options.

Thanks
