Html is off. [quote][i]Originally posted by Ivo[/i] [br]Hi. I've been using the older version of VA (7 .NET I think) for a few years. I'm testing the new VA X trial now. I really liked the behavior of the suggestion tooltip. If it has multiple alternative symbols the most probable one is shown with a dark tooltip. If I keep typing and there is only one alternative left it is shown with a bright tooltip. When I see the tooltip changing color I know I can stop typing. In VA X the suggestion tooltip is replaced by a listbox. The problem is that the listbox only shows a portion of the symbols. Even if there is one item left in the list I don't know if it is the only alternative. There may be others, but if I haven't used them recently it won't show them. There is no visual indication when there is only one guess left. I can see few possible improvements here. Best will be if the listbox shrinks to a single item only when there is indeed only one alternative left. Another way is if the listbox can give some visual feedback when it has only one guess - the color can change, the icon can change from ? to !, the text can become bold, etc. I would also like if the old tooltip behavior becomes an option. A benefit of the tooltip over a listbox is that it doesn't interfere with the editor by hijacking the arrow keys. Ivo [/quote]   Check to include your profile signature.
