In Visual Studio, how can I filter the auto-complete so it doesn't display the extension method and display native members only?

Question

If I have a

List<string> x;

When I write x. the auto-complete dialog will open and it will display a lot of linq methods and so its hard for me to find the methods that are native to the List<T>.

Is there a way to temporarily let the auto-complete not display the linq extention methods?

Right now I am using the method of removing the using System.Linq; but I was looking into a more efficient way.

thanks

You could alias the System.Linq namespace in your using:

using AliasLinq = System.Linq;

That way, none of the Linq stuff will show up unless you first type AliasLinq.
