3156864 - SAC AD : Why does Script Editor content assistance CTRL + Space not work ?

• Instead of typing formulas manually, you can press Ctrl + Space to display the script editor content assistant to choose from a list of values that are valid for that location in the formula.

• But for some workstations, the Ctrl + Space does not work and nothing is displayed.

•  SAP Analytics Cloud - Analytics Designer

If pressing Ctrl + Space doesn't display any values, make sure the hot key is not used elsewhere. For example, in some Chinese input methods, this hot key is used to switch language between Chinese and English. In this case, you need to turn off the input method for the hot key to take effect in the application.
