A possible quick and dirty fix is to comment out lines 308 to 312 in Packages/LaTeXTools/latex_cwl_completions.py:

        # autocompleting with slash already on line
        # this is necessary to work around a short-coming in ST where having a
        # keyed entry appears to interfere with it recognising that there is a
        # \ already on the line
        #
        # NB this may not work if there are other punctuation marks in the
        # completion
        if is_prefixed:
            completions = [
                (c[0], c[1][1:]) if c[1].startswith("\\") else c
                for c in completions
            ]

It could be that ST4 has fixed the short-coming mentioned in the comments.

@WeixuanZ Thank you very much, it works!

[ma-ji]

Thanks, it works well!

Has anyone considered making a pull request out of this "fix" ?

[maurice-schleussinger]

This issue is resolved with the beta release, see the README on how to install it.

EDIT: I had a problem when trying to write e.g. $\dfrac$. As soon as I typed r in $\dfr$, it got replaced with $dfr$. It happened whenever I was writing between dollar signs and there was no space before the last $.

Here are the steps I took to solve this: it happened even when disabling LaTeXTools and LaTeXYZ and it happened only on one machine. So the problem came from another package.

I opened the Console (Ctrl+``) and typed sublime.log_commands(True), then triggered the undesired behavior:

command: latexyz_insert_snippet {"contents": "\\$$0\\$", "create_fields": true}
command: insert_snippet {"contents": "\\$$0\\$"}
command: auto_complete {"disable_auto_insert": true, "next_completion_if_showing": false}
command: auto_complete {"disable_auto_insert": true, "next_completion_if_showing": false}
command: afn_delete_prefixed_slash
command: auto_complete {"disable_auto_insert": true, "next_completion_if_showing": false}
command: auto_complete {"disable_auto_insert": true, "next_completion_if_showing": false}

I found that "afn" referred to the package "AutoFileName"! I right clicked on my $\dfrac$ and went to "Tools > Developer > Show Scope Name" to copy paste the scope and added to my User settings:

	// AutoFileName
	// BlackList specific scopes
	"afn_blacklist_scopes":["string.regexp.js",
	"meta.environment.math.inline.dollar.latex",
	"string.other.math.latex",
	"punctuation.definition.string.end.latex"],

Hope this helps someone!

However, after comment out lines 308-312, autocomplete function is invalid. (with sublime text 4, macos 14.0 m2 chips). thanks!

Just want to say thank you, this problem has been bugging me for over a year and today I was determined to figure it out.

Thanks for also showing your steps so I am better at debugging
