This morning, Xcode 9.0 (9A235) shows a new/strange Auto Complete box that is not at all what it used to be. How do I get the full auto-complete box so that autocomplete looks like how it usually does?

Try:

  1. Go to Xcode > Preferences > Text Editing
  2. Under Code completion - Uncheck 'Suggest completions while typing'
  3. Quit out of Xcode and then relaunch Xcode.
  4. Go to Xcode > Preferences > Text Editing again
  5. Quit out of Xcode and then relaunch Xcode.
  6. Now go to Code completion and check 'Suggest completions while typing'.
  7. Try typing library function or enum and enjoy!
