When there are several definitions for a function, the ToolTip shows [1 of 3] and the first definition. You could then use the Arrow-Down Key to scroll through all available definitions.
That's broken in 1240, Arrow-Down moves the Caret to the next line, killing the Tooltip...
/Edit: It only seems broken in VS .NET (will investigate further!) In VS 6.0, I get 3 types for PlaySound: [1 of 3] BOOL PlaySound(LPCSTR pszSound, HMODULE hmod, DWORD fdwSound) [2 of 3] #define PlaySound PlaySoundA [3 of 3] #define PlaySound PlaySoundW
Is it necessary to show all 3? I'm not sure... |

using .NET 2002 i have just added this to a cpp file, and i am seeing:
for me up and down arrows cycle through the tooltips, using VAX 1240. are you getting the same style of tooltip? from memory you can get either the VAX or the VS tooltips, and the VS tooltips have arrows on them.
if anyone has a problem with the png file i will hunt up a jpg. for some reason MS Photo Editor produces fuzzy jpg's but sharp png files. |

We cannot reproduce the problem with down arrows. We view overloads as expected.
Does the problem happen for all overloaded methods?
We can reproduce the problem with PlaySound. VA X does tweak Unicode definitions so you [should] see only one. SendMessage() in winuser.h works fine. Not sure why PlaySound() does not behave the same way. We need to look at the definitions to see what is different.

I'll try to find a pattern or if this happens to all methods...
I can clearly remember my first reaction when it happened, I was thinking "What the..." and was not able to get the 3rdTooltip (which was the one I needed) showing up...
I will watch this as soon as I start working on the project again...
