hi all! does it also happen to you that the automatic autocompletion feature in notebooks stops working for no obvious reasons? And with this I mean the suggestions appearing automatically after you write the first couple of letters, while the suggestions keep showing as expected with Ctrl+k
incidentally, when this happens, after autocompleting with Ctrl-k, a black ellipse often gets stuck at the end of the completed word, like a piece of cursor animation which freezes for some reason
(with v10.1, win7)
and what's even more odd: the autocompletion seems to work well, but only in some sections of the notebooks
and in which sections it works seems to be dependent on the way they are folded
@Szabolcs You know that your question at WC is not getting formatted at all? What are they doing there?
@glance Yes. In Linux everything is even worse. In particular the autocompletion for options and option-values is very fragile and almost never working.
@halirutan I see. And is there some recognized pattern for when (or even better, why) it stops working?
because I see that it works fine most of the time, but when it doesn't is very consistent in the way it gets stuck. For example I have a notebook in which in a certain specific section the autocompletion doesn't work, while it does in most of the other sections/subsections
what do you usually do in these cases? restart the kernel or do you just disable the autocompletion altogether?
What's a good way to zero the diagonal of a matrix? It should work with any matrix, symbolic or numeric. If numeric packed, it shouldn't unpack. It should work if the matrix has infinities or indeterminates. It should be reasonably fast.
I just don't have a good and simple solution for this. I have complicated and not so good ones.
