Public summary
In the code editor, autocomplete shows nothing when you type a dot after a property of the object you are writing code in, unless you first type the Self. qualifier. For example, inside a Window's method, typing Title. shows no suggestions, while Self.Title. shows the expected String members. The compiler accepts both forms — the language says an unqualified name means the same as Self. plus that name — so autocomplete should offer members for both forms.
Expected behaviour: after a bare inherited property name (for example Title. inside a Window method), autocomplete offers that property's members, exactly as it does after the explicit Self. form.
