[Eric] Autocompletion behaviour

Alex,

I installed the jieba module either to test it. Anyway, with any imported
module in my current Project, typing the name of the module or typing the
name of an imported object from a module, installed in the environment or
saved in my project's path, the Autocompletion lists the correct results.
Let say, typing "jieba." lists jieba objects. If I type something that it
is not included in the objects attributes then the Autocompletion list is
populated with matches from other imported objects. Sometimes it needs some
time the modules to be read. When you are changing the settings in
preferences I suggest you to close and open again your project. Also, I
suppose that you selected something in the "Project Type" in the "Project
Properties". In my case I have selected "PyQt5 GUI", for which I selected
the Python-3.7, Python-3.6 and PyQt5 APIs from "Add from installed APIS" in
Settings.Preferences.Editor.APIs, for Python3 Language and "PyQT5 GUI"
"Project Type". In my Python setup I use the base Conda environment for
development and a created one for my Eric installation. I haven't tried to
use another Conda environment, different than the base, for development.

Each Autocompletion list entry has an icon on the beginning - boxes in blue
and yellow, a notepad with a pen etc. Unfortunately I don't know how to
interpret them exactly but only suggestions I can do.
