which IDE and version of VA are you using? which language are these rules for? i have just added two rules with these shortcuts to C++, using VS 2003, C++ and VA 1432 and they both work correctly.

VA 1432 & VS2003
i tried to remove the shortcuts and rebuild it, but it's always the same
If i swap the order in the list of the shortcuts, the 1st one is always used

can you open the relivent file:

"C:\\Program Files\\Visual Assist X\\Autotext\\Cpp.tpl" for C++
"C:\\Program Files\\Visual Assist X\\Autotext\\CS.TPL" for C#

in a text editor, search for the sections for your two autotext rules, and post it here please. this way i can be sure i am using the same rules as you, then i can test this. you do need to tell me the language you are using, because this may be relevant.

i'm only using it in cpp.tpl, so here it comes:

a::/*:
/*************************************************************************************************
*
* $end$
*/
a::/**:
/************************************************************************************************/
$end$

odd. i have added these two to my C++ autotext rules, using VS2003 and VA 1432, and i get one or the other. for ease i have named them, so there cannot be any confusion with my existing comment autotext rules.

i am seeing:





can you try giving these rules names in the edit autotext dialog -> title field

just to make sure that there is no confusion over what is going on here.

We get behavior that feline gets. Autotext for /* and /** co-exist without problem.

Make sure the "expanded code" for the /* entry is not blank. If it's blank, VA X ignores it.
