How many times have you typed this?
CString str;
str.fo<enter>
...and you get that bloody Fork! Now, 99.9% of the time you want Format(). It would be great if you could mark certain member functions as "Lean and mean" so that they are shown only when on an explicit order. Something like this:
Bar() // This class
Foo() // This class
Baz() // Super class
Foz() // Super class
----- // Separator?
Bax() // Marked as "Unwanted"
Bax() // Marked as "Unwanted"
That way, when you type:
someVar.ba<enter> you don't end up with crap, unless you want to. |

I understand the appeal, but an interface for setting and maintaining this information, considering the number of classes that people use... and then when they forget what settings they applied, or move to a different machine... This is a daunting thought.
Do you use Acronyms and Shorthand in listboxes? Once you get used to these, which does take a while, they are very good for picking the correct item from a listbox.

Yes, I am an acronym power-user :)
However, I keep typing "myStr.fo<enter>" and getting this fork()... :/ |

| Suggestions would probably work better for you here, but you would need to press Escape to dismiss the member listbox and then start typing again, hoping to see a suggestion listbox. |
