CTRL+right to accept next word ?

[Entretoize]

I just switched to Cursor, and I miss the ctrl+right that accepts the next word with copilot.
Is there another shortcut ? Else it's a needed feature.

I think it's enabled now.

This is making other use cases difficult: when using the standard OS shortcut CTRL+RightArrow to navigate among text, Cursor will instead use that to accept the suggestions from AI, regardless of what was the intention of the user.

CTRL+RightArrow is a common shortcut for navigating text on any editor, it should not autocomplete/autoaccept suggestions.
The tricky thing is that this encompasses also arbitrary small fixes that the AI think should be fixed:
e.g. transforming a ' into ", or changing a ! into #..... and introducing sneaky typos and errors all around the code, just by simply moving the cursor around the code with CTRL+Right/Left-Arrow.
I noticed that the AI is not that smart to give a consistent closing of quoted strings, hence it often ends up completing suggestions that actually end up breaking previously working code.

It's one week I'm using Cursor and it's one week that I get a lot of these errors and slowdowns and broken commits because of these arbitrary small automatic fixes applied by CTRL+Right-Arrow.

The similarity to Copilot behavior should be an opt-in, not a IDE default behavior that overrides OS default behaviors.

This issue has been described also in issue #1501.
