NOTE: This may be related to the "Default Intellisense finds 2, VAX finds 1" issue in another thread.
With VAX turned on, default parameters for functions are not showing up for both hover and edit modes (shows all parameters but not default parameters). If I use the default Intellisense (turn VAX off), default parameters show up for both hover and edit modes.
The function prototype is as follows:
int Save(BString &Result, const SomeClass &Data, UInt32 Count = 23, SomeOtherClass *OtherClassPtr = NULL, BString Format = "");
Save() is part of a base class. The base class, 'SomeClass', and 'SomeOtherClass' are all part of the same wrapper/parent class. See my other message for additional information on the design of the classes. |

what do you mean by hover and edit modes?
hover suggests some form of tooltip. is this the tooltip you see when hovering the mouse pointer over a call to the function? or is this the tooltip you see when calling the function, and the parameters are listed in the tooltip and go bold as you call them. this tooltip is triggered by placing the caret between the round brackets and pressing CTRL-SHIFT-SPACE.
i do not follow edit mode at all.

Hover mode = "is this the tooltip you see when hovering the mouse pointer over a call to the function?" Yes.
Edit mode = "is this the tooltip you see when calling the function, and the parameters are listed in the tooltip and go bold as you call them."
I couldn't think of a better phrase that describes those modes. The tooltip acts differently when I "hover" versus when I "edit". One I use the mouse with, the other with the keyboard. Dunno what you call it, that's just the way I think.
BTW, I'm not so sure that this is a problem any more. I've introduced too many variables into the equation. After writing this I disabled the "Allow Acronyms" option which, in turn, rebuilt the cache and lot of problems simply disappeared and I'm not sure why. Since I just upgraded to 1533, I'll do some more testing again.
