Sneak Preview for Autocomplete
This version does not provide full support for Autocomplete for projectdoc macros. The following versions will continuously extend the support for more macros and more macro parameters.
Currently there is Autocomplete for:
- Multi-document selection for Display Document Property Macros
- Names in Name List Macros (but only known names are supported! - see below!)
- Doctype Parameters (but the Doctype Cache may need to be monitored or cleared)
- Property Names (only for a limited number of macros)
You may use the sneak preview of Autocomplete by switching on the feature toggle.
But before you do this check out the following warnings!
- Name List Support allows no unknown names!
When opening a macro browser with a name list parameter, unknown values will be erased! You can still use the source code editor or replace the corrupted version from the last valid version from history, but this experience may be very annoying! - Only names with Iteration Released, Production, or Deprecated are recognized for Autocomplete. This allows to develop new names during the iterations Facade, Filled, Focused, and Finished.
Before switching on the feature toggle make sure that all names actually used on your Confluence instance are set to Released or Production! - Not all macro parameters are supported. Some macros, although the provide a Property Name parameter do not support Autocomplete, while others do.
This may be not very intuitive especially for teams that do not really need the featured of the projectdoc Toolbox.
If you accept this deficiencies and want to check the Autocomplete Feature, go to the General configuration and navigate to the projectdoc Toolbox Features page (on the left side).
