Visual Studio 2005 Intellisense

[bungle]

Hi

With Visual Studio 2003, I could hit CTRL+Space to invoke intellisense.
Has the keystroke changed on 2005 because it doesn't work for me?

Thanks

Dave

No, it hasn't changed. Cn you be more specific about what you're doing, and
what happens as a result?

Thanks for your reply Kevin.

I mainly see it on typing the using directives at the top of a class. I
used to be able to type "using" then space and it would give me all the
namespaces available.

This no longer occurs and I have to for example type "System." before
it will list anything??

Thanks

I see the same thing. I don't know why the using statement does not
invoke intellisense. It seems logical that if you typed using followed
by a space, that intellisense would appear with a list of namespaces.
But it doesn't. Although pressing Ctrl-space brings up the list for
me. It includes both snippets as well as namespaces. (VS2005)

Hello Dave,

Do u use any kind of VS addins? like Resharper or CodeRush? because this
tools may change the default VS intellisence hotkeys.
Go to to the VS IDE Tools->Options and check that all checkbox that relates
to the intelliscence are marked

I can't answer that question. I don't remember how the Intellisense with the
"using" directive worked in VS.Net 2003, but I'll take your word for it.
There were quite a few changes between the 2 versions, and apparently it was
decided that it would be better if it worked the way it does now. Maybe it's
because you have the option of using an alias with a namespace. Of course,
this was true in the 2003 platform as well, but as to why they changed it
(assuming they did), I can't say.
