TeXStudio macro not showing in auto-completion

Question

I have created two macros in TeXStudio to input figure and subfigure environments with the abbreviations/usertags \myFigure and \Subfigure respectively, as shown below.

The Figure macro works as intended, showing up in the auto-completion marked with '(Usertag)', and inserts the predefined figure environment:

But when I try to use the Subfigure macro without the \my* prefix, nothing shows up

I've tried another macro with the abbreviation \abcd and that worked, too, so I don't think the \my* prefix is required. What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

TeXstudio seems to ignore case for usertag completion and only accepts lowercase input, so you have to start typing \subfigure with a lowercase s:

That was actually also the case for your \myFigure if you continue typing:

In case you are using uppercase letters in the abbreviations to avoid clashes with other commands, you don't need to worry about that, since your TeXstudio macros are not LaTeX macros/commands, despite starting with \ as well. They are treated completely separately and may be identical to existing commands, as they aren't inserted in the code as-is, hence they can never cause any already defined errors.
