AutomationView provides context-aware code completion that understands your automation project.
As you type in the Sequence Editor, AutomationView suggests relevant completions based on:
automation_machine libraryWhen writing transition conditions or action targets, AutomationView suggests matching variables from your IO configuration and local declarations. Variables are managed through the Variable Management feature.

When creating transitions, get suggestions for existing steps in the current Sequence or macro step context.
IEC 61131-3 time literals with the T# prefix are autocompleted when you start typing:
T#5s -> 5 seconds
T#100ms -> 100 milliseconds
T#1m30s -> 1 minute 30 seconds
T#2h -> 2 hours
If completions do not appear, make sure your file is saved and that your project has been properly loaded. The language server needs a valid project structure to provide suggestions.
