Hello all,

I want to report about the listboxes that could be made a little better.

When I type the name of the instance of a class, with a dot behind it, a listbox pops up stating the functions and member variables I can use here. When I type allong the list-size decreases, as will the size of the listbox (which is really great). When I make a typo the listbox doesn't state anything, while the height will be reduced to the borders only. In my opinion it will be better to close the listbox or to display somehing like "...no member available...", so one will see the listbox.

When only the borders are displayed, it seems like a drawing error (often - but not in this case - indicating the hang of a programm), or it isn't noted at all. In both cases it is scary that the Return-key doesn't do anything (from the users prespective).

Remark: If you would close the listbox, and I would press backspace to delete my typo, I would like to see the listbox appear again, stating the remaining possible members.

I hope you can do something about it. Thank you in advance.

With kind regards,
Patrick Luja
