Hello,
I'm a new user of VA, and I really like it. However, it doesn't seem to work with Visual Studio's Emacs emulation. For example, when when it pops up a suggestion list and I press enter, it inserts a new line instead of selecting the current suggestion. Also, if I type characters to narrow the selection, all the characters get inserted in the buffer. If I turn off VS Emacs emulation, everything works as expected.
Is there a way to get this to work? I need my Emacs keys!

Suggestion listboxes cannot accepted by enter in emacs emulation mode is
case=18396
For now you can use shift+enter to accept suggestion and member listboxes.
>Also, if I type characters to narrow the selection, all the characters get inserted in the buffer.
I don't understand this. If I type "t" I get "true" selected, then if I press "h" I get "this" selected in the suggestion listbox. Are you seeing this? What do you mean by "buffer"? |

Thanks for the tip about Shift+Enter. I noticed that Tab works too. The problem I'm seeing is this: If I type "t" It first shows "tr" which is a macro in our code. If I then type "ru" and Shift+Enter. I see something like this:
cities->addChild(trutrue;
It added the "tru" I typed, plus "true" and it also deleted the closing parenthesis. If I press Shift+Enter after just typing one character it works OK. It only breaks when I type more to filter the suggestions.
This does not happen if I turn off Emacs emulation. By "buffer" I meant the text I'm editing. Sorry for the use of Emacs terminology.
