Hello,

I just updated to the Matlab 2021b from 2018b and I am enjoying the added autocompletion features. One thing that is is frustrating however is when I, for example, want to type the string 'ex' and press right arrow key to get out of the auto-added closing apostrophe and it autocompletes to 'example'.

I've looked around the shortcut settings but cannot find a way of disabling autocomplete on right arrow (I use tab for autocompletion anyway), anyone know how to disable this?

Thanks!

Yes, hitting escape then right key does not trigger the input of the suggestion of the right arrow key. Albeit a bit cumbersome, this is less cumbersome than using the mousepointer to click outside the brackets or continuing to type the ending bracket as Image Analyst suggested.

I'm not sure how just simply typing what you were going to type anyway (an apostrophe if you wanted 'ex' instead of 'example', basically just ignoring it's autocomplete suggestion) is more cumbersome than hitting the Esc key.

So, I might be a bit late for this answer, but apparently they added the option to disable this feature, at least in MATLAB 2023a:

It was driving me nuts as well...

You can just keep typing and as long as you're not typing letters from example, the example should go away. For example if you type ex' or ex) or ex(space) or ex =, then as soon as you don't type an "a", example should disappear.

Thanks! I would agree that this is the best way to do it but, since I am not using an english keyboard layout some of the bracket keys are somewhat uncomfortable for me to type so most of the time it is easier to just hit the right arrow key.

I just checked for you:

If you go to the preferences (in the 'Home' tab), you can disable the automatic completions in the MATLAB>Editor/Debugger>Automatic Completions.

If you select 'Show on tab' this will hide the autocompletions. You can still get the suggestions if you use tab.

Thanks! Though it seems that this only allows me to remove the autocompleted ending brackets but does not remove that right-arrow inputs the suggestion.
