<p class="x_MsoNormal">Despite having the plug-ins enabled and APIs installed, this is how autocomplete is currently behaving. One screenshot shows that functions from other modules are showing up when they shouldn’t, and as cut_for_search is not present we
also see that the functions from the jieba module are not showing up.</p>

<div class="PlainText">Hi,<br>
<br>
that seems to be correct. The eric assistant will use the same installed API <br>
files (see APIs config page). Additionally, it will extract APIs from a <br>
project once you open it. The rope plug-in determines completions and calltips <br>
dynamically for the opened project. The jedi plug-in should do this for random <br>
files (Tobias knows better on this).<br>
