Seems to happen every second release ;)

VAX 1649, VS 2008 (projects not parsed at startup). Often when I press Alt+G VAX jumps directly to the header, without showing the cpp/h-menu. This is extremely annoying.

It seems to be more frequent when pressing Alt+G inside BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP()...

One possible reason can be, if you set your include directories under

VA Options -> Projects -> C/C++ Directories
(choose "Include files" "under Show directories for")

instead of

Project properties -> C/C++ -> General -> Additional Include Directories

Headers that you modify sometimes should set under project properties.

Where did you set the include directories for these problematic files?

Do you mean that you have turned off:

VA Options -> Performance -> Parse all files when opening a project

If so then this is the expected behaviour. Since VA has not parsed all of your cpp files it will not offer them as destinations for alt-g. Installing a new build tends to trigger this problem since a new built normally requires a rebuild of the symbol database, due to changes to our parser.

Ah, my mistake then. I had turned that setting off :P

By the way, do you support "Additional include directories" of this type:

$(MySpecialDir)includes\
Where "MySpecialDir" is defined as an environment variable. I don't use this method myself, but I've seen it in several projects.

Yes, we are supporting environment variables.
