I am trying out Visual Assist X in the hopes that it works around my many problems with VS Intellisense. So far it looks slick, but there's an annoying bug it appears.
If I go to VAssistX->List Methods In Current File It always shows me the full list which is then erased and replaced with a list of just the methods that have a "space" in them. Apparently it keeps pasting a space into the search box. When I delete the space, all the methods appear in the dropdown.
This happens whether I click on the drop down button, click "List Methods In Current File" in the menu, or press the Alt+M hotkey.
VA_X.dll 10.3.1549.0 built 2007.03.16 VAOpsWin.dll version 1.3.4.8 VATE.dll version 1.0.6.2 DevEnv version 8.0.50727.762 msenv.dll version 8.0.50727.762 Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 2
I don't think anyone has ever reported this before. Certainly I am not seeing this problem here.
What happens if you map a different keyboard shortcut to VAssistX.ListMethodsInCurrentFile in the IDE keyboard options?
Do you have any other plugin's installed? Are you running any programs / utilities that are setting global keyboard hooks? Anything that watches for or responds to keyboard shortcuts.
Looks like it was a conflict with RSIGuard (http://www.rsiguard.com/). I shut it down and the problem stopped happening. Then I upgraded to the latest version of their application (4.0.15SB) and that seems to have fixed it.
"List Methods In Current File" always adds a space
