Question about IntelliPrompts

SyntaxEditor for Windows Forms Forum

I was wondering if it's possible to create an IntelliPrompt where the text in the IntelliPrompt contains a dot "." in it and the list is ordered by the text that comes after the dot. And anything that I type ignores the text that comes before the dot.

For example, in vb.net if you type in: 
Me.DialogResult =
The IntelliPrompt shows various options, all starting with DialogResult (e.g. DialogResult.Abort, DialogResult.Cancel, etc).

So when I type "C" the list goes to DialogResult.Cancel.

Thanks,

Karl

Hmm... there is the MatchBasedOnItemPreText property which controls whether typed text matches based on the Text or the AutoCompletePreText property of an item. You could fill the pre-text with the text after the period but place the whole thing in the Text property. That would get you the typing correctly.

If at that point you want the full DialogResult.Abort, etc. inserted then handle the IntelliPromptMemberListClosing event and in it, look at the selected item. Change its AutoCompletePreText property to be the Text property.

Is there anything you can't do with SyntaxEditor?

Thanks,
