Topic: SDL Studio Autotext - some entries not available in dropdown list

Post title: Correction: No minimum characters needed - it all works fine...
...at least on my system.
My shortcut also works, I must have used a wrong one before.
In order to test that everything is working allright, I've done this: I have activated all Autosuggest options in the Options (the 3 checkboxes), and chosen the right target language in the dropdown list. Then I made sure an Autosuggest dictionary is also loaded (not necessary for AutoText, but if you have one, just check that it's loaded).
For testing purposes, I then add autotext entries by marking single words with few characters in the source segment and press ALT+F7. Make sure that the expression is not already in your termbases.
Now, just click into another segment, wait until the database results show up, and then go again in your current segment. Now start typing what you have newly added into AutoText. On my system it works after 3 digit inputs to show 4-character words.
No complaints at all,
Mike
