Displaying intellisense automatically (Visual C++ 2010 Express)

One thing that has always annoyed me in Visual C++ is the fact that, unlike Visual C#, intellisense does not automatically display when a new line (or equals sign, etc) is entered, so I must press Ctrl+Space every time.

Is there any way to change this? It has gotten to the point where I have even considered using something like AutoIt to detect when I press Enter and insert a Ctrl+Space accord开发者_如何学运维ingly. Obviously, that is far from ideal.

Has the Visual Studio crew really overlooked such a glaringly obvious mistake, or have I simply missed an option somewhere?

That is by design behavior on the part of C++ IntelliSense. There is no option to change it. Alternative behaviors are supported by 3rd party extensions like Visual Assist X, however express editions of Visual Studio do not support addins and tool extensions.
