Auto-complete for links (Ctrl+Space) doesn't work

deepdwn v. 0.41.0 Windows 11 24H2 Build 26100.6899

ANSI keyboard with layout United States-International

Typing [Link]( and then pressing Ctrl+Space does nothing. I have files in the same folder as I am editing. And no, PowerTools is not installed, so that shouldn’t be grabbing the shortcut.

Hmm.

Has the file that you’re editing been saved or is it a draft?

Does autocomplete work in other circumstances? (ex: after typing three backticks to autocomplete code highlighting formats).

Any errors in Deepdwn’s log files (unlikely).

The document has been saved.

I managed to get autocomplete to work for tags.

In fenced code blocks, I didn’t get it to work. I tried for Lua and HTML. Maybe you can give me a hint what it should autocomplete?

Should the log files be in the folder I run deepdwn from? I can’t find any.

Let me know what I can do to debug this. I just fell in love with this app. I’d be happy to help. If I can turn on any debugging or run some test builds, I’m happy to work with you.

Ok! That’s good enough for testing, and confirms that the shortcut and the popup itself are both working for you.

To confirm, what do your filenames look like?

ex:

/my-folder/document-im-editing.md
/my-folder/document-im-linking-to.md

Hmm, I was hoping it was an issue with files or naming

Do these files appear correctly in Deepdwn?

Is the files-deepdwn directory your root directory in deepdwn, or is it one of the parent directories?

If you start a link with

[link](./

Does the autocomplete popup appear?

How about

[link](2025-

The files all appear correctly in the app and I can work with them. The app’s working great otherwise!

I am running Deepdwn out of C:\Users\fab\Desktop\jotdown at the moment.

These two folders are at

E:\Git\fab.industries\files-deepdwn
E:\Git\fab.industries\grimdeep\0.02.000

Trying to get autocomplete to work in the two ways you suggested does not work.

Hmm, I’m not sure what’s going on, or why this wouldn’t be working for you.

Are you trying to link to the files in the files-deepdwn folder from a file saved to the grimdeep/0.02.00 folder, or is the file you’re linking from in the same directory as the file you’re linking to?

Does autocomplete work for images in the same directory for you?

No. files-deepdwn was the only folder I had added when I first noticed this problem. I was trying to create a link from one file in this folder to another. I only added the other folder afterwards to edit some more files.

Does autocomplete work for images in the same directory for you?

Nope. Does nothing.

Auto-complete for tags works, BTW.

I’m at a loss.

Is there anything unusual that you can think of with your directory, drive, or permissions setup?

Does it work if using a different keybind option in Deepdwn (emacs or sublime, whichever you’re not currently using).

Can you share your settings file: %appdata%/Deepdwn/settings.json

Do you have another machine that you can test with? Does it work there?

Not really. I have a gaming PC with lots of drives. All are BitLocker encrypted. My system is a multilingual setup. I have German/English languages installed, English is the primary language for Windows. Other than that, it’s pretty stock Windows 11 Pro.

I use Sublime ATM. What are the keybinds for auto-complete in the other options?

Do you have another machine that you can test with? Does it work there?

I do have a Linux machine, but I guess that won’t help us much. I am sure I can rustle up another Windows system. Might take a few days.

On a side note, if it’s easier for you, feel free to contact me via email: contact@fab.industries – might help us get this resolved in a more efficient manner. Definitely thanks for your effort so far!
