[br]Hi,

I have the following struct:

[code]struct ChartFormatting
{
    ChartFormatting();

int         gridColour;                 ///< The main grid
    int         graphColour;                ///< The actual data line
    int         markColour;                 ///< Marks highlighting specific values
    int         backColour;                 ///< The background
    int         labelColour;                ///< The labels
    int         dataWidth;                  ///< The width of the data line(s)
    int         markWidth;                  ///< The width of the mark line(s)
    const char  *font;                      ///< The font name for labels
    double      fontSize;                   ///< The font size (points)
};[/code]

In a function using this, I typed

[code]    pChart->yAxis()->setWidth( m_formatting.axisWidth );[/code]

I then did Create From Usage... on axisWidth.  I got the following:

[code]struct ChartFormatting
{
    ChartFormatting();

Note axisWidth has been added, but has no type.

When I hover over setWidth, VA correctly tells me it's

void Axis::setWidth( int width )

I would have expected axisWidth to be added as an int.  It would have been really cool if it also matched the tabbing of the other members, but that's just a nicety.

I'm in Visual Studio 2005.

Cheers,

Ian

sean	Posted - Sep 09 2009 : 1:09:00 PM VA should have prompted you with a dialog showing the declaration of the member (there is no prompt for enum items). However, in this case it displays only the name (no type). It should have some non-blank default for the type: case=32084. I've also opened case=32085 for inferring the type from the function call usage.
