Visual Studio Code autocomplete for words in same file

Question

[Note: I've already tried javascript.suggest.alwaysAllWords as proposed here, but the suggested settings just give me Unknown configuration setting in Code 1.8.1 for macOS.]

Autocomplete works fine for me in Visual Studio Code, but only for code in outside modules. That's great for what it's worth, but I'm really missing the buffer-based autocomplete from Sublime which essentially includes any word in a currently-open buffer as an autocomplete option.

For example, when I type this:

hashToPage : String -> Page
hashT

I want autocomplete to offer up oPage as a completion for hashT. Instead, I have to retype the entire string.

Is there a way to tweak the settings to include words from the current page?

(Or all open buffers, or any approach that indexes variable and function names that I've created?)

Answer 1

Searching the internet I found the following option:

"editor.quickSuggestions": {
  "other": true,
  "comments": false,
  "strings": false
},

Fix like this and that worked for me correctly:

"editor.quickSuggestions": {
  "other": true,
  "comments": true,
  "strings": true
},
