I've posted this a couple of times, no luck so far. Any
info would be greatly appreciated. The tooltips are very
useful, but this oddity is very annoying, particularly
because I'm visually handicapped and it's very visually
distracting) when a tooltip ends up taking up the entire
screen...
Using Intellisense, when I type a function name and the
opening parenthesis, I get a tooltip that identifies the
return type and arguments of the function. The argument
list that is displayed in the tooltip line wraps and auto-
indents to line up with the opening parenthesis of the
function prototype. My problem is that if I have a return
type that is particularly long or verbose, and a function
name that is particularly long or verbose, then the
tooltip ends up taking up the whole screen, because all of
the function arguments wrap over many lines, but are only
a few columns wide.
Is there some way to either prototype the functions
differently, or possibly something that I can put in
the XML tags before the functions that will cause their
Intellisense tooltips to line-wrap differently? This is
obviously a WONDERFUL feature and a real life-saver for
coding, but the full-screen tooltips do make the UI kind
of cumersome. Any info would be greatly appreciated! :-)

Looks like you still aren't having any luck. I've seen this issue once or
twice myself, but that's about it. Sorry you can't seem to get any help, but
I don't have any suggestions either.

When a struct is created in C# and a parameterized constructor defined, the
IntelliSense editor shows only the syntax for the parameterized constructor
in tooltips, but not for the default constructor which appears to still
exist. If this is not designed behavior, is it a bug or am I misusing my
struct?
If it is by design, could you please explain? I realize the behavior of a
struct, as regards constructors, is different from that of...

Hi,
Within my project, I've got a number of classes in separate files.
When I point at the name of a class in the file in which it is defined,
it shows the <summary> information for the class in a tooltip. But
when I point at the name of a class in some other file (still in the
same project), it just shows "class " and the name of the class. I
looked into generating an XML file, but it produced a bunch of errors

Hi,
I am wondering how to create 'tootips' for my own C# functions.
When using intellisense to browse the available functions of a class that I
have written, I would like to be able to see a tooltip with a description for
each function.
Can anyone please tell me how to do this or perhaps a link to an article
that explains it. Tried searching but couldn't find anything.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
