Calc: Using Tab Within a Cell

users
#1

I do a lot of data entry, where the cell contents may be one of a few
different options for that particular column. (think: entering short answers
for a test question, where many people will write similar things). In Excel
and OpenOffice, once I start typing, the first option with that beginning
shows up. If there are two or more options with the same beginning, I can
press the tab key to move to the next option. The right arrow moves to the
next cell. In LibreOffice, I don't see this particular function. Everytime I
enter data in the cell, I have to type the entire entry. As you can imagine,
this gets old with long entries. Is there something I'm missing that would
do this? A setting somewhere or a plugin/extension? If LibreOffice doesn't
offer this functionality/feature, I'll have to go back to OpenOffice. (I'm
not opposed to this, but LibreOffice came pre-installed with my Linux
distro.)

ctrl-tab works the way you want it to.
