Sublime Auto-Complete Fails HTML Style and CSS

#1

Style AUTO COMPLETE stopped working in CSS files and also stopped working in HTML files for embedded Style and for inline Style. Auto-complete will not work when cursor is immediately followed by semi-colon or any other character. Below, edit of existing embedded Style: auto complete worked to complete typed col with color, and then expanded r into red. But then ran into semicolon and cannot autocomplete font-size: no popup for font-size. The only way to get an Auto-Complete popup is to backspace away from any character leaving an empty space.

{ color: red; font-si|; font-weight: 550; }

Auto-complete cramping massacres inline styling where inserting Style attribute always jams cursor in against following characters. So manual backspace but then far worse unfolds… Far worse for inline Style when cursor provides Style Auto-Complete popup only one popup item is ever offered, capcol. There is no other code given by AutoComplete to insert, only capcol. That stupid capcol popup is irrelevanet, MEANINGLESS!

style="color: r[capcol] "

What is capcol color property? RED PLEASE! And we still have to manage empty space left of closing double-quotes created by manual backspace to get that ridiculous capcol Syle Auto-Complete popup to at least pop up!

Sublime is always trying to insert capcol into inline style, regardless of the style that is being typed in. Sublime is refusing popups unless user first backspaces away from any following characters, even from the semicolon required to close the Style statement once the information HOGTIED by Auto Complete is inserted. Factually, Auto Complete even inserts semicolons, so why are existing semicolons turning off AutoComplete?

All of the above Style/CSS mangling of documents created using Sublime consistently occurs without and with packages installed. So the capcol and Auto-Complete cramping fail are all something built into Sublime that is not working.

I have got adept at dancing around massive corruption in the HTML and CSS coding environment. THE CORRUPTION OF SUBLIME IS RIDICULOUS! When will Sublime Text restore health to inline and embedded Style and CSS, that is, when will Sublime correct these issues in auto-complete?
