IntelliJ IDEA 12 code completion without capitalization

In eclipse 4.2, I can simply enter:

joptionpane

and press CTRL + SPACE and it will turn into:

 joptionpane

Is there a way to do the same with intelliJ IDEA? I tried to press CTRL + SPACE and ALT + / . But for some reason this just doesn't work.

I would really appreciate it if someone could show me how to do this.

I am just testing version 12 of IDEA, as some of my friends told me that this was the best development environment and it had the best code completion (their opinion).

You can disable case-sensitivity of code completion in the settings menu:

File → Settings → Editor → Code Termination → Case-sensitive completion

If you then type “jo” and press “TAB”, it will expand to JOptionPane.

IDEA is very sensitive to capitalization, so I doubt it will ignore it. You can enter JOP+<tab> and this will give you JOptionPane.
