Newcomers AppGameKit Corner / [SOLVED] How can I add an exception to autocomplete? I am tired of seeing "StringToBase64" every time I start writing "string"

Or perhaps a way of "comment out'' this Tier 1 library function?
Any ideas?
Thanks

Workaround:

Edit --> Preferences --> Editor --> Completions --> Set 'Characters to type for autocompletion' to 7

You won't get anything auto-completed under 7 chars after that ( string has 6 )

I don't know if you can add exceptions, though...

lol, you must be using my library. I find it very annoying as well.

@PSY: Thanks a lot! Unless someone has a better idea or knows of a way around this issue, I'm sticking to the solution you propose.


@Phaelax: Which one is your library? I'm using the default Tier 1 library, and every time I start defining a (or simply writing the word) string this function StringToBase64 shows as an autocomplete suggestion. Like @PSY says, it's because they start with the same 6 characters .
By the way, I really like that quote of Linus Torvalds!
Cheers!
