C++ – Visual Studio 2013 C++ IntelliSense shows suggestion but does not commit them by pressing any of the member list commit characters

cintellisensevisual studio

When I type in a C++ project , I get suggestion. I can commit the selected suggestion by hitting Tab key; But if I press enter or space or any of the member list commit characters :

{}[]().,:;+-*/%&|^!=<>?@#\

, Intellisense doesn't commit the selected option. I want this suggestion to be committed with any of these characters, exactly as the default settings in C#.
