Arrow Key does not work with intellicode (e.g. Copilot) autocompletion

[samaursa]

Describe the bug
When vsvim is active, and intellicode/copilot is asked to only accept completion when pressing the right-arrow, the key press is consumed by vsvim.

To Reproduce

• Make sure vsvim is enabled
• Type some code where copilot/intellicode kicks in with their faded-text-preview
• Press right-arrow, nothing will happen
• Disable vsvim
• Press right-arrow, copilot/intellicode should accept the completion

Expected behavior

• Pressing right-arrow is not consumed by vsvim (unless there is a vsvimrc file with an override, in my case I tried with an empty vsvimrc)

• Visual Studio version: 2022

• VsVim version: 2.10.0.6

• Programming Language: C++

• Check(Type 'x') any that are installed:

  • ReSharper
  • Visual Assist

Additional context
I use Resharper, but I only have to disable vsvim for this behavior to correct itself.

Here's the output from vsvim debug output where vsvim consumes the input

VsVim VsCommandTarget::Exec UserInput Key.Right: 1496a755-94de-11d0-8c3f-00c04fc2aae2 9
VsVim VimBuffer.Process: none:Right:None
VsVim TryCustomProcess MoveCaretWithArrow Right and completion False
VsVim Complete Linked Undo Transaction: Insert after motion
VsVim Open Linked Undo Transaction: Insert after motion
VsVim VimBufferCoordinator::PreviewKeyUp Right
VsVim VimKeyProcessor::KeyUp Right None
VsVim VimKeyProcessor::KeyUp Handled = False
VsVim VimBufferCoordinator::KeyUp Right

@samaursa I was facing this same problem. One workaround is to untick the Apply whole line completions on right arrow:

...once you do that you can now simply use the Tab key to accept Copilot suggestions 👍

@ericmutta thanks for the suggestion. I checked that deliberately because I am using Resharper and with that option unchecked, Copilot and Resharper both fight for tab
