No Hinting for Immediate Commands

Checked for duplicates

Yes - I've already checked

Is this a regression?

No - This is a new bug

Version

1.6.0

Describe the bug

Argument hinting doesn't work on immediate commands. This screenshot shows the hinting/autofill options after using Ctrl + Space when filling out immediate command arguments; starting to type the argument name doesn't filter down to the allowable value (echo_string, here), either.

Reproduction

• Create/edit a sequence with an immediate_commands list defined
• Write the stem of an immediate command that has arguments and type the opening parenthesis and curly brace
• Use the Ctrl + Space shortcut
• Observe that the type hinting (which works for commands in steps) doesn't work

This is a limitation noted in #827. We could not support typing for these commands since the Seq JSON spec does not specify a type.

This should be obviated by #877 when we update the Seq JSON spec to use a realtime_commands property instead of immediate and hardware. Closing this, please track #877. Will note this ticket there.

Ah -- thanks @camargo. I'll track that ticket/the SeqJSON schema change for this functionality.
