This is working for me.
Which IDE and version of VA are you using? Which programming language are you using?
Is this failing everywhere, or only in some places? |

Can you please turn on:
VA Options -> Advanced -> Display -> use tomato icons in listboxes and tooltips to mark Visual Assist X content
and then hover the mouse over a function call, over the function name, to show a tooltip, does the tooltip contain a tomato icon?
On the IDE "Text Editor" toolbar you should have a "Display quick info" button. What happens when you place the caret into a function call and press this button with the mouse? |

It was on.

It didn't at first but after toggling the option off and on again, it does.

If the caret is on the function name, same thing as hovering over it. If the caret is inside the parenthesis, nothing.

Very strange. First can you please go into the IDE options dialog -> Environment -> Keyboard and see what keyboard shortcuts, if any, are set for the command Edit.ParameterInfo
Obviously you should see "Ctrl+Shift+Space (Text Editor)", but it is good to confirm this.
Can you see if you have disabled the IDE's intellisense, either by creating a zero length read only .NCB file, or by renaming the file "feacp.dll" as described here:
http://docs.wholetomato.com?W133
I have just checked here, and renaming "feacp.dll" should not cause this problem, but it could be a factor.
Can you please add the two lines:
fopen(); strncpy_s();
to a cpp file, and see what happens when you use Ctrl-Shift-Space to trigger the parameter information tooltip on these functions? I am wondering if the problem effects standard system functions as well as your functions. |
