    I am using verion 5.0.2 and I have several of the auto-completion api's installed (vb, javascript etc) in the plugins\APIs folder.  I have the 'Enable Auto-Completion on each input' and 'Function Parameters hint on input' options toggled in the preferences.  I can't seem to get auto-completion to work, however.  Even using CTRL-Space Bar doesn't do anything.  Has anyone else come across this?

      Ok, I got it:

      http://notepad-plus.wiki.sourceforge.net/Create_AutoComplete

      There is a new protocol for autocompletion. Convert to the new system and it should work. It does for me.

      Hi,

      I just upgraded from 4.9.2 to 5.03. Auto-completion no longer works for Function Completion (though it appears to work for Word completion). CTRL-Space Bar doesn't work either. I have a an api for my own language in the usual place.

      On the other hand, if I hit  CTRL-Enter after typing a few chars from a function, it does complete the function with the first matching function from the api list. So it seems that it is just he list which is not showing up. The list does show up for word completion.

      Is this an NPP bug?

        I take it back: Auto-Completion does not work at all in 5.03, at least not for a user-defined api.
