SublimeText 3 issue with Emmet

Question

When i press tab button only generate last character. but i want generate entire line to the html.

for example when i write div>a and press tab, generate

div><a href=""></a>

instead of:

<div><a href=""></a></div>

What's the problem? how can i fix this?

It happens because you’re actually completing snippet from autocomplete popup. Either press Esc before expanding abbreviation or set disable_tab_abbreviations_on_auto_complete preference to false: https://github.com/sergeche/emmet-sublime/blob/master/Preferences.sublime-settings#L29
