It appears that the enum formatting specified below is accessible only from within its (the enum's) containing project. When the Tooltip is displayed via Intellisense external to the containing project you will see the class summary (if specified) and the enum type. Specifying a file for XML documentation as opposed to code documentation doesn't appear to be an issue either way. There might be an xml tag other than the summary tag that needs to be used in this scenario?
