I have long used the following Autotext definition (or rather the corresponding pre-1433 definition) for C++ with Visual Assist:

#w:
#pragma warning(disable:$end$)
#w:
#pragma warning(default:$end$)

Today I upgraded from build 1418 to 1433, and it stopped working properly.

If I type <#><w>, no Autotext shows up in Suggestions. However, if I rather type <#><w><backspace>, it does show up properly.

If I change the Autotext definition to _w instead of #w, it works as expected. I have confirmed that the problem exists in a new C++ project with an empty .cpp file.

----
VA_X.dll file version 10.2.1433.0 built 2005.11.23
Visual Studio 2003, English
No additional Add-ins.

confirmed. something very strange is going on here. using only one of these i get the same problem, just as you describe it. yet if i change the shortcut to be "#a" then it works correctly.

You are correct, changing one to #a does indeed work (I'm now on 1434). Strangely enough, changing it to, say, #b does not work.

I don't know if this will help pinpointing the problem, but I also have one Autotext definition linked to #onc, for which I have to type <#><o><n><c><backspace><backspace><backspace> for it to show up.

i can reproduce this problem with "#onc", which i have added to the case.

this does not make any sense to me, but hopefully it will make sense to the developers when they find the relevant code.
