I know about the Ctrl+Space shortcut to open the autocomplete menu but I am trying to enable it by default like in the text editor Sublime, for example. So I don't have to press the combination each time.

                    I am aware of this question but it was in 2011 and thought maybe it's resolved clearly in 2020 – Khaled Ismail Apr 04 '20 at 19:24

                    No changes. The mechanism itself using any specified character to trigger the autocompletion is considered extremely flexible to don't require any change. – Frankie_C Apr 04 '20 at 19:31

                    2The link above refers to content assist settings for Java. Seems to be quite different for C++. I cannot see a way to customize the trigger characters for C++ editor. Only checkboxes to enable/disable the defaults. – B. Bulpett Nov 30 '20 at 17:16
