Snippets not in AutoComplete popup

[devert]

On Windows 7 the snippets do not show up as an option while typing in the autocomplete pop up. Searching for the snippet in the Command Palette it can be found an applied, but no in autocomplete. I am in a javascript file with syntax set to JavaScript.

Am having this same issue, on the same OS. For instance, when typing '.on' to trigger the 'on' method snippet, all it does is show a list of other snippets ('open', and 'Open' if that matters), but none for the 'on' method.

Having the same issue here on same OS 64bit. Is this happening on any other OS?

I'm having the same issue on Windows 8, with Sublime Text 2. The reason for this seems to be, that the snippets <tabTrigger> attributes start with either . or $, both of which causes trouble with auto complete (at least on Windows, as it seems).

Try to create your own snippet with an <tabTrigger> attribute like "hello". It will show up in the auto complete box. Now edit the tab trigger and have it start with a $ or a ., such as "$hello". It won't show up anymore.
