Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 4148
AutoCorrect/Word Completion: Accept with [Tab]
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:40:21 UTC
Could the options for which keys are available to accept "Word Completions" please be extended to accept the [Tab] key - or any user defined key for that matter? Thanks for all you do!
Joost->Falco: reassigned as RFE to you
I was confused by the current behaviour i tried a few things and return seemed to be the key that was used. Tab or possible Right Arrow, would be more in line with user expectations (Tab for unix shell users, Right arrow for Windows users).
I strongly agree with this, I found myself hitting tab expecting it to autocomplete, but it did not. I was surprised not to find it in the list of keys to use for autocompleting.

setting initial target-milestone, adjusting priority, set platform/os to all.
I also vote for TAB. please include this to feature commission.
Hello Andreas, could you please estimate this feature for implementation in OO.o 2.0? Thank you.
Tools/AutoCorrect/AutoFormat... Word Completion offers a list of characters to accept the word completion. <Enter> <End> <Space> <Cursor-Right> are choosable, default is <Enter>. It's only a small effort to extend the list by <Tab> and/or to change the default from <Enter> to something else.
Effort: 1 day.
Hello Andreas, let us enhance the list for accept-keys for word completion with <TAB> without the change of the default.
Okay.
