I am using VSCode Hypersnips (based off of Vi's https://github.com/SirVer/ultisnips), following this guide . See also Create-Snippets-For-Ultisnips.
Consider the following example: I have a snippet
snippet fm "inline Math" wA
\(${1}\) $0
end snippet
and another snippet
snippet ( "parenthesis" wiA
($1) $0
end snippet
If I were to type fm, then that would produce \(|\) |, where the first | is where my cursor is, and the second | is where my cursor would be if I pressed <Tab>. Now, when I type fm ( hi <Tab> that produces \((hi) |\) as expected, but when I press <Tab> again (hoping to use the $0 tab stop of the fm snippet), I don't get outside the right \) like I want, and instead a tab character (i.e. 2 spaces) are placed where the cursor is.
I am wondering if I can nest snippets like this, and still use the tab stops of the outer snippet once I exit the inner snippet.
I assume the same issue occurs if I use native VSCode snippets.
StackOverflow informs me that a similar question has been asked: Atom - Nested snippets with tab stops error, but not about VSCode's snippets.
