Kdevelop C++ auto code completion

Hey all, I am very new to using Kdevelop, as you can see this is my first post, and I have a very basic question. I did a search for the answer but I can't find a how-to on this topic. I have been using eclipse for a while and it had many features I like that I have heard Kdevelop has but it, unlike Kdevelop, would crash every time I wanted to debug a simple program.

A main feature I would like to use is auto code completion. When coding in Eclipse, if I were to type "Class::" where "Class" was the name of a class I created, a window would pop up with all of the options I had to type there. How do I get this feature to work in Kdevelop? I have gone into Project Options and turned on Automatic Code Completion but I think I must be missing a step because it is not working yet.

I know this question wasn't included in the topic, but also I was wanting to know where I could configure what all of the code template keywords did, for example, in a template $NAMESPACEBEG$ would format a namespace in this way:

Source code

 
1

namespace "user defined name"{


but I would like to configure it to format slightly different:

Source code

 
1
2

namespace "user defined name"
{


Where do I go to change this a bit to my own personal liking?

Thanks a lot for a quick response.
