How do you enable Auto-Activiation for Content Assist with typing any character? And how do I disable hiding of Content Assist as soon as the current filter would show an empty result?
Technically Ctl-Space works, but it's annoying. I'm used to a fast user interface with automatically displayed Content Assist.

Unfortunately this is not supported yet in Eclipse/CDT, there is a Bugzilla aiming to add such feature: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=101420
Hopefully it will be taken into consideration to have a chance to see this in STM32CubeIDE.
Knowing that this is not exactly your question, for now the only way to activate the content-assist is either pressing Ctrl+Space, or '.' or '::' or '->'

Thanks! The funny thing is I believe to remember this was working in Eclipse a long time ago. But since it was always much slower than Visual Studio I avoided Eclipse for a long time. But with STM32CubeIDE being based on Eclipse I'm kinda forced to use it now.

I would like to make a feature request as a work around for this functionality. Add a custom trigger character box such as the one in Eclipse, then input all characters that will become the trigger , example: "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ._". Now content assist will automatically trigger. Please refer to https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6912169/eclipse-enable-autocomplete-content-assist

Is there any chance that this functionality will get added in the near future?
