Use suggested method parameters in Visual Studio Code

Question

Visual Studio Code suggests the right parameters for well defined methods as you type them. Is there a way to take them over / insert them straight away? Doesn't feel right to write the parameters with their types by hand...

I also not found this possibility, but yeah this is good idea to autocomplete from d.ts files. I suggest to add this feature request to github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues – Claudeclaudel

Answer 1

Something like that exists for javascript & typescript files:

settings.json Ctrl+,

"typescript.suggest.completeFunctionCalls": true,
"javascript.suggest.completeFunctionCalls": true,

Thanks a lot, that was exactly what I was looking for! – Sparker

I added this, it adds paranthesis, but does not autocomplete variables – Wilone

This is great and unknown to a lot of people, I wish VSCode could suggest this in the intellisense when writing functions. – Phantasm

Answer 2

Now its finally working as expected, Visual Studio Code 1.63.0 implemented "Method Signature Completions": https://code.visualstudio.com/updates/v1_63#_method-signature-completions
