customCommands enhancement

[maku]

You have to write the whole "prefix" of a customCommand plus the the first "variable" part to see anything relevant in the search result:

e.g. I have a definition lke:

"customCommands": [
    {
      "name": "Open with Visual Studio Code:",
      "executionArgument": "!code",
      "prefix": "openwithcode"
    }
  ],

I have to type

to see a result

Would it possible to present the command also in the search result? (After selecting in the search result and hit enter or tab the command should be presented in the input area to proceed with the variable part)

When would you expect your custom command to appear in the search results?

[maku]

At the same time a "shortcut" appears....

[oliverschwendener]

As a workaround for now: why don't you just set a shorter prefix?

[maku]

@oliverschwendener yeah would be max. a compromise solution. Problem is you would have to memorize the prefix. From experience I know that this does not work good... (especially when you have several...)

[oliverschwendener]

Allright. I will look into it as soon as possible.

[oliverschwendener]

I added the possibility to launch custom commands without typing in the full name of the prefix. If you have set up a custom command like this...

{
    "name": "Open with Visual Studio Code:",
    "executionArgument": "!code",
    "prefix": "openwithcode"
}

...the custom command appears in the search results when your user input matches the first characters of your prefix. In this example the search result would already appear when typing in open or even o.

This will be included in the next release.
