Code autocomplete feature got downgraded.
I made a mistake updating rider to 2018 from 2017. Earlier the Auto complete worked like a charm. Now it has become much difficult to use.
For example:-
Suppose I have a class named Dialogue.
in 2017, I would just type "d" and it would show suggestion for my Dialogue class.
in 2018, it doesnt work that well. I have to type "D" (shift+d) in order for it to work. This is irritating.
If I type "p"
in 2017, I would just write "p" and hit Enter and "public" got typed(as it is the first suggestion)
in 2018, if I type "p" then it still shows public as first suggestion but I have to press the Down key to select it and then press enter for it to type "public", else it just writes "p"
2017 was very intuitive and super easy. I feel in 2018 you guys added 1 extra step to everything. 2018 sucks bad. I had to switch back to 2017.

Hello!
Thanks a lot for your feedback.
Could you please attach screenshots with autocompletion samples in cases you described above? This will help us to understand which items are above your usual ones in case of "p" and "d".
Also, please, try to use an intellisense feature in Rider 2018.2 EAP version. This version has a new scoring engine for code completion.
Hi,
Thank you for replying back. I am downloading the new 2018.2 version. If this doesn't solve the problem then I will send you the required screenshots.
best,
