Addresses #4963 by making the behavior of the
CodeHintList
on tab key events configurable on a global and per-CodeHintProvider
basis. TheCodeHintManager
provider registration API is generalized with an additional optional property,insertHintOnTab
, that indicates whether theCodeHintManager
should request that the provider of the current session insert the currently selected hint on tab key events, or if instead a tab character should be inserted into the editor. If a provider omits this property, the behavior is determined by theCodeHintManager
. The default behavior is to insert a tab character into the editor, as is the case now. The default can be changed globally with the newCodeHintManager.setInsertHintOnTab(bool)
method. For an example use of this method, see my awesome new extension: iwehrman/brackets-insert-hint-on-tab.This was @peterflynn's idea!
