Hey all,
This question is more Visual Studio specific : I'd like to know if there's an extension that enables showing a drop box ( similar to when you're typing a function name, and then a small menu shows all available functions with a name similar to what you typed, and the same goes to variables), unless in my case, I'd like from Visual Studio to show all available filepaths when you start typing a filepath string ( e.g. "Assets/Backgrounds/, in this case the menu should show a list of all available files within the Backgrounds folder). That's because typing a wrong filepath everytime and getting the unexisting texture filepath issue is a bit hard to go through when designing levels or enemies. Hope my request was explained clearly enough. See ya :)

This has nothing to do with SFML so it's probably better asked/answered on a more general site.  For example, google gets me this: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10431821/visual-studio-autocomplete-to-find-a-file

I suggest to ask your question somewhere, where the topics are actually about VS and not about some random libraries (e.g. over at Microsoft's forum thingy or StackOverflow).

Generally we try to stay focused on SFML given that we don't have the capacity to discuss every aspect and problem with C++ and tools surrounding it. ;)
Plus you might get better/faster answers there anyways.
