Unintuitive Autocomplete

[chmln]

Is it possible to disable sublime’s autocomplete jumping to the middle of the list, which skips the most relevant suggestions at the top?

Sublime text selects items in the auto-completion panel by the entered characters the so called prefix. The prefix includes words only. As you triggered auto-completion by entering the . the prefix is empty and ST can’t know what you want. Just start typing C and you’ll get all entries containing this letter.

Auto-completion works on word-base only. Plugins providing context sensitive auto-completions have the chance to inhibit such word completions to cause only valid entries to be added. This is nothing ST does out of the box.
