Hi everyone,

Is it possible to have tab autocompletion (to local variables and functions) in the debug console during debugging?  
It doesn’t work for me but I tried searching around a bit and didn’t find any conclusive answer saying that this is not possible, so it might be that it is possible in some way but I don’t know how?

Can anyone confirm this?

It’s possible but not implemented, I think. Please open a feature request at
