How to disable the annoying NetBeans auto-suggest while typing

When I am typing in NetBeans 8.2, whether it is a HTML paragraph or something like an input field, this annoying auto-suggest feature keeps on popping up. It is really annoying when I try to press enter to start a new line as it will insert a load of code when I press enter, since 'Button' is automatically highlighted.

I've included a screenshot of the problem below...

The bit that isn't blurred out is the problem. I have blurred the rest of the page since it contains some personal information and profane language.

How can I disable this autocorrect feature. I don't want to disable autoorrect for PHP or when actually setting up a HTML tag (so I want to use it in a situation like this... <input type="autocorrect displays here" />, but not when typing anything else).

Sorry if I haven't explained myself very well, I can't really think of a good way to describe my problem. Please, leave a commend if you need to know more.

Thanks :)

PS: I can't find any other answers on the internet because I don't know what this is called, since I want this specific auto-suggest to disappear, so please direct me to another answer and I'll delete this question if the answer is appropriate.

PPS: I think the palette may have something to do with it but I can't be sure.

Solution

  • I finally found the solution for this annoying problem:

    Simply go to Tools/Palette/Code Clips and remove everything from Palette (all folders and items).

    Now the problem is gone!
