Open Radar

 
Summary:
I want to be able to easily autocomplete method long method names, such as

- (NSView *)tableView:(NSTableView *)tableView viewForTableColumn:(NSTableColumn *)tableColumn row:(NSInteger)row;

The only way to do this currently is to type "- tableView" which displays a large amount of methods and forces you to pick one using the arrow keys, instead of typing the other parameter name, such as "- tableView view".


Steps to Reproduce:

1. open any class which has large enough number of methods with similar name, for example subclass of NSTableViewDelegate or UITableViewDelegate
2. type "- tableView<ctrl + space>"
3.  autocomplete appears
4. keep tying ":did"
5. autocomplete disappears, instead of narrowing down the search


Expected Results:

I would expect to be able to narrow down the autocomplete for additional parameters, so that " - tableView:cellFor" would offer me "- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath" instead of closing the autocomplete.

It would be even better if I could just type "cellForRow" and have it work as well.


Actual Results:
Autocomplete closes when you type more than the name of the first argument


Regression:
It occurs in all versions

Notes:
Any alternative solution would be great as currently the only way is to manually look through a large list of methods using mouse/arrow keys and find the one you need.
