Autocomplete

While you type at the end of a math region, Calculeaf can suggest worksheet variable names and units that match the letters so far.

Turn it on or off

On the Math Format tab, the Autocomplete group has one button: Autocomplete. It is on by default. The tooltip reads: suggest matching units and existing variable names while typing in math regions. The status bar confirms “Autocomplete on” or “Autocomplete off”.

What it suggests

• Variables already defined on this sheet, matched from the start of the name.
• Units from the catalogue. If the region already has a result unit, unit suggestions stay in that dimension — typing in a force result offers other force units, not metres.

You need at least one character. The list is capped so the best exact match stays on top.

Keyboard

• ↓ / ↑ — move the highlight.
• Tab — accept the highlighted suggestion.
• Enter — accept, unless the token already matches exactly (then Enter behaves as usual).
• Esc — dismiss the list.

Clicking a unit on a result also opens a compatible-unit list when Autocomplete is on. That is the same catalogue as the result-chip picker.

For the typed names, see Function catalog and Greek letters and symbols. Unit suggestions come from the same catalogue as Units.
