(Original report by Mikhail on #43647, running 3.9 on Linux; verified and extended by me running 3.10 on Windows.)
Normally, "i<tab>" brings up a completion window with 'id', 'if', 'import', etc. Opening a Settings windows with Options => Configure IDLE and closing with Apply and Cancel or OK (which also applies) disables tab completion. Other completions (forced with ^<space> or auto with '.' or '/' and waits seem not affected. The only way to restore is to close and reopen each window.
Tab completions are enabled in editor.py with these two lines.
text.event_add('<<autocomplete>>', '<Key-Tab>')
text.bind("<<autocomplete>>", autocomplete.autocomplete_event)
Attribute and path completions, not affected, are enabled with these.
text.event_add('<<try-open-completions>>', '<KeyRelease-period>',
'<KeyRelease-slash>', '<KeyRelease-backslash>
text.bind("<<try-open-completions>>",
autocomplete.try_open_completions_event)
Similarly for some other things.
In configdialog, the relevant method is (179) def apply, who relevant calls are (219) deactivate_current_config and (230) activate_current_config. The former removes key bindings and the latter rebinds and makes other changes.
What is different about Tab versus '.' is that is tab also used for indents and the indent space is reset by 'activate...'. I will later add some debug prints to console based on the clues above. |
