Emmet doesn't works with multicursors

[jmpp]

• VSCode Version: 1.10.1
• OS Version: Windows Seven Professionnal

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Just open any HTML file.
2. Create multiple cursors and try to use a Emmet snippet.
3. Run "Expand"

Snippet won't expand on multicursors :'(

@jmpp
Set emmet.useNewEmmet to true (in the latest Insiders dated 6/1 or above and eventually in the stable release of 1.13 and higher) to get emmet abbreviation expansions in the suggestion list.
This will work in multi cursor too

For details on this setting read #1952 (comment)

Hi @jmpp, it works thank you! However, ¿is this going to be implemented by default in a future release?

[jmpp]

@sant123 Dunno. Maybe you should ask @ramya-rao-a ;-)

[ramya-rao-a]

Yes. Best case scenario is

• We set emmet.useNewEmmet to true by default in 1.14. Users can fallback to the old model by setting this to false
• We remove the setting altogether and only have the new model in 1.15

My mistake @jmpp 😂 😂 😂
Thank you @ramya-rao-a

@ramya-rao-a When I enable this flag, tab-completions cease to work in stylesheets.

[ramya-rao-a]

@simgooder can you give an example?

[simgooder]

To use tab-completions in HTML with multiple-cursors, I turned this setting to true. When I move into a stylesheet (scss) and attempt to tab complete display: inline-block; using the shorthand dib + [tab], it just tabs - no completion.

[ramya-rao-a]

In the new emmet model:

• tab is no longer bound to emmet expansion.
• you will see emmet expansion in the suggestion list

General notes on suggestion list:

• pressing tab when suggestion list is present, chooses the first item in the suggestion list
• If you have editor.quickSuggestions turned off, then the suggestions won't show up as you type. You can still trigger the suggestions by Ctrl+Space

I am able to emmet to work in scss file in multi cursor mode using both the suggestion list and via the emmet expansion command
