Message definition (KDevelop5/Manual/Customizing KDevelop)

'''KDevelop''' has two ways to show a completion: <menuchoice>When Invoked Manually</menuchoice> shows just the basic information in completion tooltips (i.e. the namespace, class, function, or variable name). This will look similar to '''Kate''' completion (except for the icons).
On the other hand, <menuchoice>Always</menuchoice> will additionally show the type for each entry,
and in the case of functions, also the arguments they take. Also,
if you are currently filling in the arguments to a function, full
completion will have an additional info-box above the cursor that will
show you the current argument you are working on.
'''KDevelop's''' code completion should also bring-to-top and highlight in
green any completion items that match the currently expected type in
both minimal and full completion, known as "best-matches".

KDevelop has two ways to show a completion: Minimal Automatic Completion shows just the basic information in completion tooltips (i.e. the namespace, class, function, or variable name). This will look similar to Kate completion (except for the icons). On the other hand, Full completion will additionally show the type for each entry, and in the case of functions, also the arguments they take. Also, if you are currently filling in the arguments to a function, full completion will have an additional info-box above the cursor that will show you the current argument you are working on. KDevelop's code completion should also bring-to-top and highlight in green any completion items that match the currently expected type in both minimal and full completion, known as "best-matches".
