title: Configure keys that trigger intellisense completion in Visual Studio
body: <p>I would like Visual Studio to autocomplete the current entry in the intellisense menu only when I hit tab.</p>
  
  <p>Autocompletion being triggered, for example, when I press a period, is forcing me to hit escape every time I'm writing something that cannot yet be autocompleted, to avoid that what I'm typing gets replaced with a random entry.</p>
  
  <p>Is there an option to configure this?</p>
  
  <p>I'm using Visual Studio 2015, and programming in C#.</p>

  <p>Example: here I'm typing <code>Log</code>, which is a class for which I haven't yet added the appropriate <code>using</code> statement. None of the suggestions is the good one. If I hit <code>.</code> now, the autocomplete feature will write <code>EventLogProcessor</code>, which is not what I want.</p>
