Autocomplete Text

Autocomplete text is available for many fields in Empiria Studio. The autocomplete options are based on information you entered previously for similar fields.

Use autocomplete text to hasten data entry and keep text consistent across similar Experiments.

Select autocomplete text

If you are entering information in a field where autocomplete options are available (based on the text you're typing), you can click to select the autocomplete option you want to use.

You can also press the Down Arrow until the option you want is selected, then press Enter.

Remove autocomplete text

If you are entering text in a field and you notice an autocomplete option that is no longer useful, you can remove it by clicking next to the unneeded option. Once an autocomplete entry is removed, it will no longer be available in Empiria Studio.
