The parameter tooltip doesn't work on constructors with VS2010.
The first argument in the tooltip is always bold regardless of where the cursor is. (see picture)




VA build 1856

Yes, unfortunately. case=32921 covers this problem as well.

Thanks for your response.

I didn't realize I had that option turned off. I get the same behaviour if I disable Visual Assist, so it's a pure VS2010 bug.

With the option turned on it works as specified, if the statement is closed.

I am seeing the same effect here. However, your screenshot displays a default Visual Studio tooltip. If you turn on VA version of the tooltip

VA Options -> Advanced -> Dislay -> Enable automatic Quick Info ToolTips

you will run into a different problem, however: VA cannot dislay tooltips in this special case if the statement is not closed with a semicolon:

Size (1, |)

it works if you do close it:

Size(1, |);
