Find/Replace Overlay: "Content Assist Available" ctrl+space does not work in .java files

[jukzi]

When enabling regular expression i get a hint that ctrl+space would open content assist but it only adds a space

That's interesting. The issue is not reproducible for me, it works as expected:

for .xml files it works for me too but not with .java source code

Thank you, I missed the specialization to .java files. I can indeed reproduce the issue there. Seems to be related to how key bindings work / are disabled in (Java) editors. It's a rather complicated / hacky solution to support such an overlay for an editor.

Please provide what ever API is needed for editors like jdt and disable the hint when it is disabled by the editor
