You don't need to switch or use the mouse. You can instead: . keep typing TAB to scroll through the full list of completion candidates (if the full list takes more than a single window to show), or . type more text in the minibuffer, then press TAB again, to narrow the list of candidates -- the next letter which will narrow the list is displayed in bold in the list of the candidates, or . in Emacs 29, you can type M- and M- arrow keys to select the candidates > An effective way that improves the frequent minibuffer activity (e.g. icomplete lets user > select a completion without having to smitch windows), emacs can automatically switch > to the completions buffer so one can get to a possible selection using the arrow keys. In Emacs 29, there's a new variable 'completion-auto-select', which does precisely that.
