1474817 - autocompletion text isn't displayed if there's at least one line after the cursor

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(DevTools :: Console, defect, P3)

Description

[Nicolas Chevobbe [:nchevobbe]]

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Open the console
2. Paste the following: 

```js
function() {
  
}
```

3. Hit arrow up so the cursor is inside the function

```js
function() {
  |
}
```

4. Type `win`

**Expected results**

I expect the autocompletion text to be visible and show `dow` after `win`

**Actual results**

The autocompletion text is not displayed

---

This is because we only show the text if the cursor is at the end of the input [1], in order to not have it overlap with text that might come after. This is not quite the right strategy, as we should look if there is enough space on the line to display the autocomplete.

STR from Comment 0 do show the completion text now. Probably fixed in Bug 1479521 .
