Ability to turn off code hinting #4716
Description
Activity
@1c7 - are you seeing this in all JS files, or just in
<script>blocks in HTML files? If the latter, this could be the same as #4608. If that's the case, let us know and we'll close this out as a duplicate.As a workaround for now, you can move aside or delete the JavaScript code hints extension. First, locate the Brackets source folder in your installation; on Windows, this is in the "www" folder next to the Brackets executable (in Program FIles\Brackets Sprint 28); on Mac, you have to select the Brackets application file, right-click and choose "Show Package Contents", then navigate into the Contents/www folder. Within the www folder, navigate into extensions/default, then select the JavaScriptCodeHints folder and move it somewhere else (e.g. to your desktop). Then restart Brackets and JS code hinting should be disabled. To re-enable it, you can just move the folder back in.
Assigning to me to track until we figure out what's going on.
Thank you much. The lag of this feature was making Brackets unusable as the javascript portion of my project grew in size/complexity. Will there be a menu option soon?
I'm also experiencing this slowdown with JS autocomplete when using Brackets sprint 30.
I found that it was occurring mostly when trying to autocomplete JS that was inline inside of my .html documents. If I moved this JS to an external .js file, then the autocomplete ran perfectly with no lag.
I experienced this yesterday, too.
My pc is quite good (although the Brackets start takes 6 seconds), but it hung some time (not to much, I would say 50-100 ms).
Would be cool to be fixed.It's happened in a .js file to me.
I've just tested it again, it took most time if I just write a dot into "nothing" (clear new line). But it isn't that much to me, because as I said my computer is quite fast (Win8).
But if I imagine how long this will take on my old Vista-PC...Ok, I've tested it on my old Vista-PC (it is really slow).
If you just type a dot in a new (clear) line, it takes about 500ms to 1s to load the results. During this time the whole program hangs, so I can't type any more and so on. After that it hangs for every single letter I type (for example I want to type .save, this takes up to 3s and I must type some letters more often).
I've experienced this all in a .js file.Happens for me in .js files. I'm on Windows 7

[-]How to close Auto Complete feature?[/-][+]Ability to turn off code hinting[/+]on Mar 17, 2014 We've had the ability to turn off code hints for quite some time now. The secondary issue in this bug is poor performance of JS code hints, but we have a bunch of items in Trello about improving JS code hints (such as this one). Any objections to closing this?

How can i turn off auto tag closing?
See info about the
closeTagspreference in How to Use Brackets doc.
My computer performance is not very good....
when i use brackets 28.. edit javascript code are slow..
example: input "al"(alert) or "fun"(function)..
software will stop.. wait about 300~500 Millisecond.
then pop out auto complete list...
this is Annoying...
how to close auto complete Feature?
Thanks!
