    I used to use <tab> to cycle through the completion list in vim with completion plugins like YouCompleteme, but when working in Qt, I seem to have to get my fingers off the center of the keyboard to reach for the arrow keys. I think using <tab> and enter key is much more convenient when completing a word, is there a way to do this? Or is there any other better solution?

      @mustBeAnAlien Hi,

      Unfortunately there is no editable shortcut for "up & down navigation" in completion.
      But if you are usual to Vim. You may want to try the Fake Vim option of Qt Creator.
      You can toggle the mode with ALT+V, ALT+V shortcut

      Edit: This it not working for cycling with TAB, sorry I should have tested before to post.
