Disable (turn off) autocomplete on dot . period for VSCode

Most people do not want to have autocompletion when they press the dot key, which should be disabled by default in VSCode.

Below shows 2 ways to turn this off.

Method 1:

1. Go to VSCode setting and search for:

editor.acceptSuggestionOnCommitCharacter

2. Uncheck the checkbox below:

Editor: Accept Suggestion On Commit Character
[ ] Controls whether suggestions should be accepted on commit characters. For example, in JavaScript, the semi-colon (;) can be a commit character that accepts a suggestion and types that character.

Method 2:

Place this in your 'settings.json' file :

"editor.acceptSuggestionOnCommitCharacter": false,

settings.json can be found and opened by:

1. Opening the setting of VSCode.
2. On top right corner icons, the first icon is the settings.json file.
