Hi there.

As far as I can see there is no option to use Ctrl-Enter to trigger a Text Expander item or an Auto Complete proposual. Am I right?

Unfortuneately I cannot use Enter, Tab or Space for this in Auto Complete. In Text Expander I can get along with this by having all my items ending with a ~ or a #.

In a competing software (Phra.....) I could use F12 for example which helped a bit but is not ideal as well.

So, is there a way to use something like Ctrl-Enter or Ctrl-Space, etc... to trigger a Text Expander item or an Auto Complete proposual?

Regards

Text expanding is triggered by pressing one of the "Ending characters" - a list can be defined in Preferences/Text Expander. You could add any other key, like # if that's convenient for you. You could also select "Trigger immediately" to trigger the expansion without waiting for the ending character.

Mouse and the following keys can be used to select one of the items from the popup: Enter, Tab, Shift, Space or one of the number keys. You can configure it in Preferences/General/Popups.

Unfortunately, key combinations cannot be used.
