<h2 id="hd_id2507201509433418">Code Completion</h2>
<paragraph id="par_id2607201514295746" role="paragraph" xml-lang="en-US">This feature helps the Basic programmer to complete the code, saves extensive typing and helps to reduce coding errors.</paragraph>
<h3 id="par_id2507201509433497">Enable code completion</h3>
<paragraph id="par_id2507201509570245" role="paragraph" xml-lang="en-US"><ahelp hid="cui/ui/optbasicidepage/codecomplete_enable">Display methods of a Basic object.</ahelp> Code completion will display the methods of a Basic object, provided the object is a UNO extended type, and the option "Use extended types" is also on. It does not work on a generic <item type="literal">Object</item> or <item type="literal">Variant</item> Basic types.</paragraph>
<paragraph id="par_id2507201516150454" role="paragraph" xml-lang="en-US">When a variable is a UNO interface or structure, a list box appears when pressing the dot after a variable's name (like <item type="literal">aVar.</item> [list box appears] ). Its methods and variables are listed in the list box, displayed just below. You can navigate between the suggested methods and variables with the arrow keys. To insert the selected entry, press the <item type="keycode">Enter</item> key or double click on it with the mouse. To cancel the list box, press the <item type="keycode">Esc</item> key.</paragraph>
<paragraph id="par_id2507201516150494" role="paragraph" xml-lang="en-US">When typing the method's name, and pressing the <item type="keycode">Tab</item> key once, it will complete the selected entry, pressing the Tab key again will cycle through the matches with the longest prefix. For example, when <item type="literal">aVar.aMeth</item> is typed, it will cycle through <item type="literal">aMeth1, aMethod2, aMethod3</item> entries, and other entries are not hidden.</paragraph>
<paragraph id="par_id2507201516150482" role="paragraph" xml-lang="en-US">Example:</paragraph>

Modifications of the code are based on the program's variables declarations and on the %PRODUCTNAME Basic commands parsed.</paragraph>
