Some help with icomplete

[Rahul Martim Juliato <rahuljuliato@gmail.com>]

Hello there!


I've been strugling with something I can see as possible but am sure it
is not obvious (at least not for me).


On plain emacs if I use `icomplete-vertical-mode' with
`icomplete-in-buffer' set to t, I get a "company/corfu like" completion
"in buffer" feature.


Thing is, the list always starts on the next line (that is ok) but on
the first column. So it is very strange to M-TAB with the cursor on
column 50 and get a list on column 0. If I were using plain
`icomplete-mode' (no vertical), it would complete horizontally from the
place my cursor is at the moment.

Can anyone elucidate me on how to make it work the way I'd like to?


Some screenshots to illustrate it:
