General ⇒ Using TeXnic hints

[blearyeye]

As I type in TeXnic, the program gives me hints ... when I type "\sec", a hint of "\section{}" shows up below. But I can't seem to make use of the hint. Normally I'd press some key and accept the hint, but none that I've tried work, and I can't seem to find anything in help.

Thanks. So, how did you know that? I looked & looked, must have been looking in the wrong places.

Hi Bill,

you will find it in the menu: Edit -> Complete Word.
You can read it on the TeXnicCenter homepage too: The TeXnicCenter Cookbook for Auto-Completion (menu: Help -> HowTo).

Hi

I know it's an old thread, but i'm looking for The TeXnicCenter Cookbook for Auto-Completion but i can't find it anywhere.
Anyone has a copy they would like to share?

Best regards Jakob
