To enable suggestions for GitHub Copilot with a Tab key, follow the steps below.

  1. Open the file keybindings.json in Visual Studio Code. This can be done by pressing Ctrl + Shift + P, and typing Open Keyboard Shortcuts (JSON).

  2. In keybindings.json, add the following.

    [
  {
    "key": "tab",
    "command": "editor.action.inlineSuggest.commit",
    "when": "textInputFocus && inlineSuggestionHasIndentationLessThanTabSize && inlineSuggestionVisible && !editorTabMovesFocus"     
  }
]

This should now enable you to accept suggestions in Markdown using the Tab key!

    Thanks for your answer, I tried a while, `editor.action.inlineSuggestion.commit` is a invalid command, but `editor.action.inlineSuggest.commit` is a valid command, base on your code, I wrote a seems correct keybinds Comments cnat't add block code, so I edited my question for adding keybinds Thanks again – linka Apr 11 '22 at 02:02
  • ```json { "key": "tab", "command": "editor.action.inlineSuggest.commit", "when": "textInputFocus && inlineSuggestionHasIndentationLessThanTabSize && inlineSuggestionVisible && !editorTabMovesFocus" }, ``` – defend orca Apr 10 '23 at 07:48
