Wouldn't it be better for the validation keys be customized.
For example, when chosing a suggestion, we accept it by pressing the 'TAB' or 'Enter' key.
---------------------------
class objec
{
.
.
.
int id;
objec parent;
}

---------------------------
objec x = new objec();
objec y= new objec();
x.parent=y;
x.parent.id=5;
//consider this fragment
---------------------------
i have to type 'x.';
and then chose 'parent';
then validating with TAB/Enter;
then '.';
then 'id' then validating....

if we add the '.' to the validation keys
i would have typed 'x.';
then choose 'parent';
and press '.' while validating the suggestion;
then 'id' and validating....

this will consume time and keystrokes (maybe we can add the ' ' (empty space) to the validating too, since both these characters ('.' and ' ') doesn't exist in a variable or method string

And Thanks for the wonderfull VA

Turn on the VA option:

VA Options -> Advanced -> Listboxes -> Selections committed with: Any character not valid in a symbol

Thanks for your reply.
I'm using the VA_X 10.3.1561.0.
I found this option in the 'Suggestions' part, but I think it's different in the updated version. I'll check
Thanks
