I'm a Unity developer and just made the jump from Monodevelop to Visual Studio Community. Overall Visual Studio Community is a huge improvement but there is one thing I miss that Monodevelop did better: With Monodevelop's auto-completion, it would always sort the functions / variables by class. With VSC, it just shows every possible conclusion in alphabetical order, including all class and base class methods and properties.
So, in the example shown here, if I start by typing "PauseManager." in Monodevelop, it will show autocomplete suggestions first for PauseManager, and then below that for it's base class System.Object.
However when I type the same thing in Visual Studio, it will show me a huge list of methods and properties in alphabetical order, the majority of which I'm unlikely to be using.
This is a very simple example of a small class with only one ancestor; you can imagine that this gets especially unwieldy when I've got a class with a dozen public methods and multiple ancestors, each of which have their own public methods and properties.
I've looked at the documentation for Intellisense here: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/intellisense and I don't see any options for what I'm trying to accomplish.
Does anyone know of a way that this can be done? If not I may have to reluctantly go back to Monodevelop - looking through all these methods to sort out the ones relevant to what I'm doing it turning into an annoying little time waster.
Nope, apparently it is not possible currently.
There was an issue/feature request but they closed it 5 months ago with kind of "won't do" as answer. They linked it to a "duplicate" issue though I honestly don't really see that as a duplicate ...
Maybe you can search for plugins but built-in it seems not possible currently .. what is a pity because now that I know it exists somewhere I also miss it a bit :'D
