Prompt string with autocomplete

Hi, 

 

I want to prompt a string such that input field has autocomplete and listbox suggestion of matching strings i.e. similar way as commands are prompted. Is this possible ?

 

What I have tried is:

1. Editor.GetString(....) this will not accept keywords and seems that customization options are quite few.

2. Editor.GetKeyWords(...)  this is not useful because I have too many strings to select from. In addition autocad seems to hang with big amout of keywords.
