WebStorm CSS unit selection suggestion 1st choice

I tried googling for this, but could not find anything on it by myself.

When you type out something that has auto suggestions in WebStorm, like <d.. then the auto complete box with suggestions comes up, and the first element is selected; and if I want to select it I only have to press Enter.

enter image description here

but when I try to do the same when writing CSS, and typing something like width: 1 the suggestions pop up like usual, but WebStorm doesn't select the top suggestion.

enter image description here

I figure might have to do with the fact that there are different types of suggestions available, not just numeric values, and then a denomination/value type.

If there is a plugin, or a setting I could use/change, it would be very nice if someone could point me to it. As tapping that arrow down once every time I want to select the most relevant/top result is just a little bit annoying when you are already in the habit of just hitting enter when having typed a value.

Please feel free to let me know if you need any more information, or if I have made a duplicate, or some other error, and I will append or fix it to the best of my abilities.

It's done on purpose. Preselection of the first unit in the completion list will make it impossible to type fractional numbers because typing dot would insert the preselected completion item. Also, a unit would be inserted on typing Space, which would make it difficult to type a number without a unit.
