There's a feature wherein the comments from the header file are displayed in a tooltip for the currently selected member in the listbox. It seems to be gathering these comments from the hierarchy of inherited classes, which is a great idea, except for one thing.

Let's say I have a base class "Shape" and a derived class "Circle". Now "Shape" has a virtual method "Draw()", which "Circle" overrides. The catch is, the comment for "Draw()" is identical in both classes (not suprising, since I just cut-and-pasted it). The bug is that VAX displays both comments, even though they're the same, which looks odd and wastes real estate.

I agree it's a bit distracting.
And another annoyance are tooltips extending past the right edge of the screen - I have to scroll the window and make them reappear to see the whole text.
