Please review and changer Milestone accordingly.

"python.autoComplete.showAdvancedMembers": true

Shouldn't that be the default?

[MikhailArkhipov]

Are they commonly used? With all props visible user coding against their own class with 3 properties will be seeing a lot of stuff they don't care about. VS does not show those by default (unless user specifically types _). Unfortunately, there is no fine-grained control over typing in VSC.

Are they commonly used?

I believe the following are commonly used:

• __name__
• __file__
• __package__

VS does not show those by default (unless user specifically types _)

Why can't we display them in VSC as well, and reverse the sort order so they are displayed at the bottom. This way when users type something starting with _, then these items will appear (get filtered out)

@qubitron ?

[brettcannon]

__name__ and __file__ are somewhat common, but __package__ isn't.

I'm confused, in this case looks like Don specifically typed _, so why wouldn't all the available dunder items appear?

@qubitron VS in this case means Visual Studio 2017, not VSCode. It would be nice to get similar behavior in VSCode but it's not there yet.

[DonJayamanne]

Decision is to enable this by default.
