Is it possible to display member variables of classes shown in the VA Outline view somehow (maybe by a setting I haven't discovered yet)?

Which IDE and version of VA are you using?
Which language are you programming in?

VA Outline is showing me class member variables when I look at a C++ .h file.

My bad. VA Outline of course only displays the content of the current file. It correctly displays the member variables when the header file is active. Anyway, what I'm looking for is:
When programming a function it a view of the class member variables would be really helpful. I.e.
foo.h:
class Foo()
{
private:
int mymember;
public:
Foo();
}

Now I'm working in foo.cpp within the Foo-ctor:
Foo::Foo() {
// writing my stuff right now
}

A view which would show the outline of Foo class while the cursor is within the Foo::Foo() block could improve the productivity because I wouldn't have to switch between the header/cpp file.

Is that already possible with VA?

Have you tried the Hovering Class Browser in the VA View (VAssistX | Tools | VA View)?
