Enter stream() or map() in Eclipse without using Arrow keys

Question

I am using Eclipse 2020-03.

What annoys me:

When I have some list someList and I type:

someList.stream

then parallelStream() is the highest showing element in the autocomplete. So when I enter (, I see

someList.parallelStream()

The only way to avoid this (I have found so far) is to input stream and then hit the down arrow key to choose stream() from the list.

The same happens with .map which is always replaced by .flatMap().

I never use parallelStream or flatMap so I find this not very useful.

Is there some way to enter these things without using the arrow keys?

Actually yes. Open Window -> Preferences, you can find Context Assist under Java -> Content Assist. Uncheck the Show substring matches, then it's gonna show what exactly matches your typing.
