Closing XML tag completion

Not sure if this already exists and I've overlooked the setting, but it'd be nice if tag completion was available for custom XML documents in the same way as it is for HTML.

Being lazy I'd find it really handy not having to copy paste tags to close them.

Hi Dmitri,

Could you explain where the setting is for it?

I had a skim through the settings and can only see two relevant options:

- Editor > Editor settings > Smart end

- Code Insight > Code completion > Trigger auto close

Neither of which enables auto closing of non html mark up like <mynode> </ ....

with all settings left by-default type the following
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<abc>
</|
where | denotes cursor location
and press Ctrl+Space to have list of tags ready to close

ah, I see, probably you mean </abc> to appear without pressing Ctrl-space... Then -- no, it's not implemented.

Hi Dmitri,

Exactly; it's one of the few things I miss from Netbeans.

It'd be nice if closing xml tags worked in the same way as phpEd handles curly braces, html etc rather than have to start the two chars of the end tag and then hit ctrl+space.

It's not too bad though.

Thanks for the ctrl+space tip.
