Lost "autocompletion" ... [message #1821973] |

I am sure I am not using correct term , but at this time I am not worry about terminology.
Let's concentrate on the problem solution.
When using standard Eclipse editor I can type struct name , followed with "." ( period) and select the structure member form the attached (menu) form.
(Too bad OS won't let me take a screen shot of any such menu form)
After attempting to install new software I now have funky "format alignment " lines in B@W editor , no more color,
BUT no more "autocompletion " either !
I do not care much for formatting lines, but I like to get the other feature back.
This does no affect ALL .cpp / . h files - just some.
Any factual help would be appreciated.
See attached where NOTHING happens after period is inserted !
2019-12 running on Ubuntu

Based on the fact that the editor is displaying the code as plain text, it is likely that the file has been opened in the text editor and hot the C/C++ editor. You need to use the Open with menu entry from the context menu to open the file in the C/C++ editor.
Select the file in the explorer window, right click and search for Open with entry, click and look for C/C++ editor in the list.
