I type on one line inside a class definition:

void Foo(int x, char y, float z);

VA X parses this after a few seconds, and i subsequently get the tooltip with my member function declaration when i curser-over it.

Later, I decide that I want each parameter on a different line.

I use the arrow keys to bring myself to the member function declaration line, and ctrl-right my way to the 'c' in "char y".

The tooltip appears with my function signature (identical to the line of code itself) directly below my cursor.

I hit 'enter' to bring the substring "char y, float z);" to the next line, and now the tooltip is direcly _over_ my cursor.

This bug manifests again when i repeat the process and hit enter directly before the 'f' in "float z);"

IMO, tooltips should never obscure the cursor or line being edited :).

Thanks,
chas

Pressing Enter should clear the hovering tooltip. The fact it does not creates the problem. Our error.

We will fix the problem.
