If I set "editor.quickSuggestions": false, (it defaults to true), then Tab no longer works for emmet.

I prefer to use Emmet Tab expansion with the suggestions dropdown disabled. This was the behavior in previous builds. Something changed recently to "break" my this behavior.

When you don't have the setting checked, tab does not expand emmet abbreviation. This is as-designed.

@octref
I mean don't have the setting checked, but only expand emmet abbreviation "tab" key.
And i have the setting checked, is working "cmd+e"(my key binding) for expand emmet abbreviation.
My windows computer is not have the setting checked and is working "ctrl+e"(my key binding) for expand emmet abbreviation.

Can you use https://getkap.co/ to record a gif? Also run "Toggle Screencast Mode".

And now don't have the setting checked, not working expand emmet abbreviation....
setting checked, working "cmd+e" key.

Does this still repro? I can't reproduce this with below setting:

{
  "emmet.triggerExpansionOnTab": true,
  "editor.quickSuggestions": false
}

This is irrespective of whether I reset a shortcut for Emmet: Expand Abbreviation.

  • VScode version : 1.39.2
  • MAC version : Catalina10.15

Now everything is ok.
Thanks you to answer my issue.
