Hello,
Sometimes when switching between windows I encounter a problem where I get a red squiggle line underneath symbols (which are properly declared and can be referenced to without compiler errors of any type). When this occurs, I can almost always be assured that any new symbols (variables I have don't work), and even when I force the VisualAssistX.ReparseCurrentFile command (assigned shortcut for it), all of the red squiggles remain.
Any ideas? I am using Build 1422.
Sincerely,
James Simpson |

what language and IDE?
in VA options can you select different colours for underlining spelling errors and underlining mistyped symbols and then see which colour is used? picking colours the IDE does not underline with will help. i know that in C# the IDE likes to underline things its self, so we need to find out who is doing this underlining. |

any luck with changing the colours of VA's underlining?
is this effect project or even file specific?
if you hover over, click on, or use VA's goto on one of the underlined symbols what information do you get? what does the HCB show? what does the VA wizard bar show? does goto take you to the right place?
have you tried rebuilding VA's symbol databases, VA options -> performance. |

Hello feline,
I left everything to whatever the default options are. Also I notice that the scope of this problem is solution-wide in Visual Studio .NET 2003. By the way I did not try rebuilding the database.

can you try the following for me please
in VA options set "underline spelling errors" to something unique, perhaps "FF8000", a dark orange
also set underline "mistyped symbol" to something unique, perhaps "Fuchsia", a dark pink
this way we can be sure who is drawing these underlines, and why.
can you also create a new standard C++ and if you have time C# program to see if the problem effects different solutions?
rebuilding the symbol database *may* fix this, depending on what is going on, so it is worth a try if you have the time. |
