Hey guys,
I have a problem regarding autocompletion and suggestions (via Intellisense) as it’s not activating properly (or at least only after a delay of several minutes of not debugging or closing Visual Studio). Does it really take that long to collect Keywords and Methods/Variables of all the classes? Or is that just a bug I’m encountering? (I’m not entirely sure about the workflow of IntelliSense so I can’t guess the reason that’s causing this problem)
Thanks in advance
Probably need more information on the version of VS you are using. (To follow up, I’ve only ever done c/c++ in emacs/notepad, you kinda just get used to not having it after awhile)
Oh yeah, I’m using Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate Version 12.0.21005.1 REL on a Windows 7 64bit OS.
Hi, not sure if that’s what you mean, but after adding new class try the following:
Build solution
Close VS
In the editor File->Refresh VS Project
File->Open VS
Give it 5-10 seconds to rescan files
I am having the same issue as the OP.
I have the exact same setup (VS 2013 Ult) except for the one difference of me being on Win 8.
I have honestly noticed a lot of strange behavior in VS…Maybe I will try reverting to VS2012.
I would recommend you guys Visual Assist. It is much much faster than Intellisense.
Works pretty good! 
Highly recommend VAX (Visual Assist X) too. It’s way better than Intellisence for an Unreal Project and there’s a lot of cool feature too.
If you are serious about developing for UE4, buy VAX! There’s also a trial version of 30 days if you need convincing. Also : deactivate Intellisence once you have VAX, Visual Studio will fell much better!
phoboz thank you very very much!! I managed to fix my problem (Intellisense stopped working - Platform & Builds - Unreal Engine Forums) following your steps <3
