Using VS 2010 I get no tooltips when I hover over a variable name (in any language - c++ native\\cli\\c#).
For example:
int myvar = 0;
myvar = myvar + 10;
Hovering over myvar does not pop up a tooltip showing it is an int.
In C# when I have VAX disable the intellisense pops up the type when I hover over it. Once I enable VAX nothing pops up when I hover over it.
In C++ I believe there is no intellisense in VS2010, but neither is there any in VAX.
Autocomplete and function definitions do pop up, but no variable definitions.

Thank you. Setting those options fixed the issue. |

I am glad that moving the C++ project to a different directory has helped, but I am not sure why the original directory was causing problems.
For C++ CLI can you try turning on the following VA options:
VA Options -> Advanced -> Display -> Display comments from source files when available
VA Options -> Advanced -> Display -> Enable automatic Quick Info ToolTips
does this make any difference?
This tells VA to show tooltips its self, automatically, when you hover the mouse over something. |

Also, I just moved the project to another folder and now the tooltips in the native C++ project are working. But the C++ cli project in the same solutution still has no tooltips. The C# project in the same solution does have tooltips. |

I created a new C++ solution and the tooltips work in that project. Just not my current project. Not sure if it matters, but my current project was created before installing VA. Testing some other projects made before installing VA has the same result of no tooltips. Testing some other projects made after installing VA seem to all have tooltips.

Can you please create a new, default C++ solution, and see if you get the expected tooltips there?
I am seeing the tooltips here on my test system.
Can you please go to:
VA Options -> System Info -> Copy Info
and paste the details (from the clipboard) into your reply. This will give us the basic information about your setup. |

I'm using both C++ and CLI C++ and don't have it in either.
I'm using the latest trial from the site. |

Which version of VA are you using?
Are you working in C++ or CLI C++? VS2010 provides intellisense in C++, but not in CLI C++. VA provides intellisense in both languages. |
