Two shapes, and Ctrl+G switches between them for the life of one popup:

The IntelliSense completion popup offering the Customer table after dbo.Cu, with its key hints beneath the list.

  • One ranked list with a row of kind chips to narrow it — All, then a chip per family.
  • Grouped into sections: Tables, Views, Columns, Programmability, then Keywords · Variables · Schemas.

Which one it opens in is a setting (§17); Ctrl+G changes the list in front of you and does not change the setting.

The footer says what each key does — insert, move, kind, group, dismiss — and the header carries the match count and a schema summary: "412 objects, read 09:14", or "schema not read yet".
