How to open ide preferences in order to configure IDE

[jujoab]

I am searching for hours on this forum trying to find the way to have code completion or code assist working.

One note I found says to open the preferences tab but I can't find it.
Thanks in advance.

Options.
IDE

Are you sure are looking at documentation for Custom Computer Services?.

Unfortunately a lot of web searches on 'CCS', instead find stuff relating to Ti Code Composer Studio (which is also abbreviated as 'CCS').

A reference to 'preferences', makes me think you are looking at 'webwork' for the Ti IDE, not the Custom Computer Services IDE...

Custom Computer Services C, doesn't have a 'code assist' option. Code completion is normally on by default.

CCS (here), predates Ti using the same initials, so 'blame Ti' for electing to use the same name....

Thanks Ttelmah.

I assumed that they were the same ( ti and pic ) CCS c.
Pls let me ask for an extra piece of help.

My code completion did work OK, but now is not showing any completion when ctrl + space is pressed.

Just in case I reinstalled the 074, but still not working.

Is there anywhere on the IDE configuration the may affect code completion ????

Hi

I found the configuration windows were "USE CODE COMPLETE" could be selected.
OPTIONS-->>IDE-->>GENERAL-->>EDITOR options.

It was selected on my case, but as explained on previous note it was not working.
I deselected and selected again with no expected results.

Them I proceed with a complete deinstallation, even cleaning PICC folder and installed again.

Problem remains. CTRL + space do not produce any results.

Thanks in advance.

On the versions page they say:

There is a trick to get it working.
Tested several PIC's, all ok.

The trick is to create the project, insert a few lines after
#include <xxxxxxxxxx.h> and BUILD it.

After doing the build, the "code completion" will start to work for that project, even with 074.

Thanks for the help.
