In the lastest version of Xcode, you can't. This changed from earlier vesions, but I guess someone decided that it was too invasive. And to be honest, I'd agree with that assessment. But it's a close call and some people still prefer how it used to work.
When entering a new symbol you have to use the keyboard to get the completion list. There is an option for member variables that will automatically pop-up the completion list, but only for members of a class or structure reference.
Given:
struct { int uvw; int xyz; } abcdefg;
Typing
abc_
(the _ is your cursor) will not pop-up the completion list.
But if you type
abcdefg._
... and wait a second, the list will automatically pop up if you have that option enabled. If you start typing the member name before it pops up, it will never (automatically) pop-up.
Getting the old behaviour of automatically popping up in all contexts has been a fequent request. File a bug report to add your vote.
