Show TS/JS File and Folder Suggestions using Trigger Characters

[ndkcha]

• VSCode Version: 1.9.1
• OS Version: macOS Sierra (10.12.3)

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Open folder (containing the angular2 app)
2. Write import statement and refer to path. It should suggest the path based on directory structure.

This should work. Can you please share your tsconfig.json and a small example project that demonstrates this issue

I have created a repository containing a code where i encountered with the issue. You can find the repository here.
My tsconfig.json file.
I have commented on a specific file to elaborate the issue. You can it here.

I hope this helps.

Thanks. So to be clear, the issue is not that directory/files suggestions are never shown, but that they are not shown when you type / in the import path?

As a workaround, you can trigger quick suggestions manually with ctrlspace

[ndkcha]

yes.
okay. thanks! 👍

Is it possible to show first the files in which the variable exported matches the one imported?

something like

import { AwesomeClass } from '
/_____________________________________________________\
| => - "../../fileExportingAwesomeClass.js"
| => - "../../../anotherFileExportingAwesomeClass.js"
| => - "packagenameFromNodeModulesExportingAwesomeClass"
| [... rest]
