Webstorm suggestions in html without ctrl + space.

Hi

 

I would like to have suggestions in html files without using shortcut ctrl + space.

Example:

When I start typing <bu it will suggest me <button but when I start typing bu it doesn't show me anything until I press ctrl + space.

Is it possible to show snippets without pressing any shortcut? Especially I have a problem when I want to user angular snippets like a-router-link etc.

 

Thanks for help

Hi there,

No. bu is just an ordinary text in that context. At the same time <bu clearly shows that you are trying to complete some HTML (or alike) tag.

Imagine that I just want to type "click this button" text -- why do I need to see (possibly invalid and definitely annoying) suggestion popups for each of those words?

 

P.S. You can use Emmet/Live Templates -- just remember the needed abbreviations. https://confluence.jetbrains.com/display/PhpStorm/Live+Templates+%28Snippets%29+in+PhpStorm
