I have found that in order to get a list of available methods and
properties of an identifier to select from you have to stop for a
second or two after typing in its name until the IDE sort of "selects"
the identifier (it will get a grayish background).
Then when you hit the period the list appears.

But if you type the period immediately after the object name nothing
happens....
