There's some weirdness about when members in listboxes are bold. (I have checked the 'Bold non-inherited members in listboxes' checkbox.)
Sometimes, none of the members are bold; this seems to happen for classes like CString that have no base class. |

Odds are the listbox is from default Intellisense, even if "Use Default Intellisense..." is not enabled. If not enabled, VA X might ask default Intellisense for a listbox if it cannot generate one. CString is such an example.
We expect one day to add bold, and sorting for that matter, to default Intellisense listboxes. |

Say what? What does checking that checkbox do, then?? And isn't there some way to tell the difference between VAX listboxes and IDE listboxes?quote:

Did you mean to say not in the above? If so, I'm confused... I think this merits an explanation, and maybe also a corrected tooltip in the "Options" dialog...

In the case of member listboxes, "Use Default Intellisense" tells VA X to let default Intellisense open the listbox if possible. VA X tries if MS cannot.
When the option is unset, VA X tries. If unable, MS gets a chance.
There are sutle differences between MS and VA X listboxes. Look how the current selection is done.
We agree the tooltip could be better. We tweaked behavior of the option after writing the tooltip. |

Then you should reword this option to "Prefer Default Intellisense" or something. The way it's named now is really needlessly confusing. If you go back and read the posts on this subject, I doubt you'd find that anyone has understood this completely.

| I agree with Larry. I've had some bugs to do with different types of tooltips appearing for the same symbol. I couldn't understand how this could happen when I had "use default intellisense" unchecked. |

We will change the wording of the option and the info tooltip.
We will make also hovering tooltips in your source respect the option. Right now, MS displays hovering tooltips always if it can, regardless of the option. The change will eliminate some inconsistency. |
