ver 10.6.1859.0

Besides the listed type <asp:d and losing intellisene, I find that when doing a JS edit on my .aspx, typing ||->||| and &&->&&& each time. The first symbol comes fine, the second looks like it's invoking some snippet handling or something and introducing the second "||" or second "&&". Disabling VX .aspx handling via projects->file handling fixes it, but removes the handling.

Another frustration:

I type this:
<telerik:gr - get list. I choose "<telerik:GridDropdownlistColumnEditor" and this is what is inserted:

<telerik:telerik:GridDropDownListColumnEditor

Ick. Any ideas?

The listbox disappearing when you type <asp: is a known bug:

case=56660

What is "<telerik:" ? One of your own classes or namespaces? Does the listbox disappear when you type the colon after "telerik" or does the listbox stay on screen?

I don't really know anything about ASP.NET, so I am trying to work out what is happening here. I can reproduce something similar, by pressing CTRL-SPACE after typing "asp:" to make the listbox reappear, and then accepting an item from it. So I am wondering if I am seeing the same problem or not.

For the JS edit, are you working inside a .aspx file, or some other file? So far I cannot reproduce this, and I am wondering if I am doing the right thing. Working in a .aspx file, I have the code:

<script type="text/javascript">
	if (1 || 2) {
	}
</script>


I accepted a VA Snippet to insert the if statement, and then typed this condition inside the round brackets. I did not see any listboxes when typing the "|". I have also tried "&&" inside the if statement, and again no problems typing this.

Regarding the reported problem of typing in an aspx page and getting doubled operators....

Telerik is a company that makes controls for .net (http://www.telerik.com/), so when typing in a .aspx page that's the namespace of their controls.

The exact same thing as described for the <telerik: happens with <asp:

i.e. with VAX enabled and .aspx not in the 'Extensions to ignore'

  • In an aspx page type <asp:
  • Note that you don't really get anything helpful like a list of possible valid values, but instead you just get a couple of NON-USEFUL VAX recommendations.
  • Type ctrl-space to get the drop-down list.
  • Scroll down in the list until you see asp:Label and insert that value.
  • Fix what got inserted, because it is <asp:asp:Label


Ok, now try it with VAX disabled, or with .aspx in 'Extensions to ignore'

  • An an aspx page type <asp:
  • Note that you get useful information of valid values that start with asp: to choose from.
  • Continue typing one more letter: <asp:l
  • Note that asp:Label is highlighted, so all you have to do is hit Tab to accept it
  • You can now keep typing along without having to correct. Note the speed increase and frustration decrease in typing asp code.


I always considered this problem to be lumped in with case=56660; when that problem is fixed this should go away.

Thanks,
Mark.

Thank you for the details. I suspected the problem with telerik being entered twice was also happening with asp being entered twice, I just wanted to make sure we were talking about the same thing. I have put a bug report in for this:

case=62750

This is being made a lot worse by case=56660, but it looks like a separate effect to me, hence a separate bug report.

I am still not able to reproduce the double operators bug. Are you able to reproduce this on demand with simple steps?

Thanks feline and others. See this thread for my other issue, I believe it is the same. Very annoying!

That makes sense, and it does sound similar, thank you for this. Nobodo do you have:

VA Options -> Advanced -> General -> Double effective rate of key repeat

turned On? If so does turning this off have any effect on the double operators bug?
