Autocomplete not offering suggestions for direct instantiation

I have an entity in my project called data_logger. In another module I'm trying to directly instantiate it so I type the following:
DUT: entity work.data_log
and hit ctrl+space. The suggestions are a custom template I created with a name of "oz" that uses the new anywhere template setting and ";" not entity suggestions are shown.
If I continue to complete it by typing this:  DUT: entity work.data_logger the grey box shows up around data_logger and I can F3 jump to the file, but autocomplete suggestions are still just the semicolon and the custom template.

This is similar to the other report I wrote about auto-complete but I could still get autocomplete to work by typing  DUT: data_logger but since the latest update, even that doesn't work.

Hi Nathanael,

the way to trigger entity instantiation autocomplete is to start typing entity in the context of a concurrent statement, and then press CTRL+SPACE.

You are right that it would be more intuitive if we could auto-complete it in the context of the entity name. I have logged this as ticket:1850
