</div>

Steps to reproduce:

1. Type `:bu`
2. _Click_ on `🐛 bug`

The text gets auto-completed to `:bug:`, but the preview still shows `:bu` instead of 🐛.

This issue does not occur when the auto-completion is triggered with enter, and typing the character refreshes the preview.

Just tried it. It took a while for the preview pane to update, but it did after a few seconds.

I actually agree this is a minor bug, preview should re-render on select of any autocomplete @eviltrout
