When you type a comma in a function call parameter list, a tooltip shows up. I welcome it when I press Ctrl-Space, but I get annoyed when it storms in the room like that - it blocks my view, or when I'm not looking (and if the function is overloaded), it gobbles up cursor movements.
Is there a way to suppress this feature? Even disabling Visual Assist doesn't. I could live with turning it off completely, provided it is easy to turn on again when I feel like pressing Ctrl-Space.

Which IDE and version of VA are you using?
If VA is doing this then I would expect disabling VA to stop it happening. |

This is 1559 on Visual C++ 2005 SP1.
I thought the buttoned tooltip looked too nice to come from Visual Studio. I remember reading in this forum that disabling VA doesn't really shut it down, so I did try to disable VA in Visual Studio's Add-in Manager and restarted, but VA comes right back.
How can one truly disable VA, without uninstalling (which I presume kills settings)? Do as in topic 5487, and reinstall to restore? |

| Indeed VA has nothing to do with it. It's Visual Studio's own work. Yes, "Parameter info" and the other "Statement completion" options are disabled, for all languages, in the VS Text Editor options. |

Simply turning off:
IDE tools menu -> Options -> Text Editor -> C/C++ -> Parameter information
is enough to stop this happening for me in VS2005, C++
If you have any other IDE plugin's installed they might be a factor. |

Suppress parameter list when typing a comma
