Question:

Could you guide me through the process of configuring auto-completion features within Universal SQL Editor?

Answer:

Open Universal SQL Editor, and go to the ‘Tools’ menu. Select ‘Preferences’ from the dropdown to open the settings window.

Step 2: Enable Auto-Completion

In the Preferences window, look for the ‘Editor’ section. Here, you’ll find an option for ‘Code Completion’. Ensure that the checkbox next to ‘Enable auto-completion on each input’ is ticked.

Step 3: Configure Auto-Completion Settings

Once enabled, you can adjust the auto-completion settings to suit your preferences. You can set the delay for the auto-completion popup to appear after you stop typing, and choose whether you want the editor to automatically insert the best match.

Step 4: Customize Your Auto-Completion List

Universal SQL Editor allows you to customize the auto-completion list. Under the ‘Code Completion’ section, you can add, remove, or modify the keywords and functions that appear in the auto-completion dropdown.

Step 5: Save Your Settings

After configuring the settings to your liking, click ‘OK’ to save your changes. The next time you type in the editor, the auto-completion feature will suggest keywords and phrases based on your configurations.

Step 6: Test It Out

To test your auto-completion setup, start typing a SQL command or keyword. If set up correctly, a list of suggestions should appear, allowing you to select the appropriate completion without typing it out fully.

By following these steps, you should have a fully functional auto-completion feature that makes writing SQL queries faster and more efficient. Happy coding!
