Auction House: Auto Complete issues

[krj12]

When typing in something in the search box in the auction house,  there is one issue causing me major headaches.

1.   It wants to auto complete what I'm typing.  This works maybe 50 percent of the time, but it usually autocompletes with the wrong item, forcing me to type in the entire description.

 

Example:  I wanted to search for the Force Feedback:  Chance for +recharge ENHANCEMENT.  Instead, it wants to auto complete for the RECIPE.

 

2.   There is no way to insert the cursor in the middle or at the end of what it chose to auto complete with and make corrections.   When you attempt to do this,  it highlights the entire text string, forcing you to retype everything.

 

Please either allow user corrections to the search string, or remove auto completion completely.

Thanks.

I believe there is an option on the menu screen  by the search box to turn off auto complete .

Thanks, that solves half the issue - at least by turning off part of the broken feature.

However, it still doesn't resolve the issue of not being able to alter what you've typed in the search box. It still wants to select the entire string when you click in the search box again.
