For generating doxygen comments I defined a suite of shortcuts beginning with -? (#x00A7) e. g. -?p for @param. When ever I try to use this shortcut within a comment shortcut expansion is not offered:

/**
bla bla bla.

-?p <- nothing happens

*/


So, I don't know whether this behavior is a bug or a feature.


Now here is the desired feature request:

Assume I have the following function:

void f(int aaa)
{
int bbb=42;
}

It would be nice when I can adjust Visual Assist in that way that the calling arguments (aaa here) can have another color then the local variables defined inside the function.

I have got just a further idea:

Assume the following function:

void g(int aaa)
{
int ccc,ddd,eee;

{
int aaa,ccc,fff;
}

}

aaa and ccc should have a further color due to they overwrite the items declared before.

For better distinguishing the different objects further properties can be used: underlineing, italic, bold...

try the 1526 beta

http://forum.wholetomato.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=4864

this has the refactoring document method. this allows you, via editing the autotext entry, to set up a doxigen format comment block for your functions, which you can then simply trigger.

if you want a comment on the shortcuts you have added you are going to have to explain what you are talking about. the description does not sound like a VA feature, unless you are talking about autotext, which is not active in comments.

the extra colouring, try turning on local variables in bold.
