Description

When using the figure command ![](){@fig-a}, the prompts for autocompletion would not appear typing @fig . But the autocompletion for figure command

:::{#fig-a layout-ncol=2}

![](b.png){#fig-b}

![](c.png){#fig-c}

:::

works well.

And if the last line of the side-by-side figure above is commented out like

:::{#fig-a layout-ncol=2}

![](b.png){#fig-b}

![](c.png){#fig-c}

<!-- ::: -->

, the autocompletion disappear.

The completions for equation and table work well. The figure cross reference in output pdf file looks good.

Am I setting something wrong?

I use quarto 1.4.18 and vs code plugin 1.83.0.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the supplied figure-reference examples in VS Code with Quarto 1.4.18 and the VS Code plugin 1.83.0, comparing the inline figure case with the working side-by-side, equation, and table cases. Done means autocompletion appears while typing @fig for inline figures without breaking the existing completions.
