To make it easier to navigate the autocompleter views without moving one's hands too far from the normal typing position, the following Emacs-style keyboard shortcuts are now available:

  • Common (list and table):
    • Up one: Ctrl+P
    • Down one: Ctrl+N
    • Up one page: Alt+V
    • Down one page: Ctrl+V
  • Table only:
    • Left: Ctrl+B
    • Right: Ctrl+F

Note that Alt+V on OS X with some keyboard layouts inputs a character () which the autocompleter then tries to match but usually fails, thus closing the autocompleter.

    Since Ctrl+V conflicted with Paste under Windows, Alt+V and Ctrl+V were removed.
